I had chosen instead of dinner to do this course for my birthday as I truly wanted to cook while in Bologna and it was great. I cannot wait to use the recipes we were given to recreate the dishes at home as well as take the basic skills we have learned and apply them to further pasta and cooking skills. The hosts were warm and helpful, even making me a birthday cake which was incredible. Some cooking courses are large group where you walk away proud but not informed on a personal level and this was small enough that we were given individualized help and conversations about cultural differences or our lives. Highly recommend to anyone who wishes to learn to make pasta or traditional bolognese recipes.

Wow what an incredible experience!! We felt very welcome and so relaxed , great to share in the fun of learning to make homemade pasta and be hands on , felt like part of the family. We loved the dogs especially as we were missing our own!!! Can’t recommend highly enough, 10/10!!! We’ll definitely come again in the future!!! Make sure you don’t eat beforehand as the portions are extremely generous!!! Colette & Steven Newman

Highly recommend , we enjoyed everything about this experience. The host and her mother(the chef) were friendly and made you feel like you were invited to a friends house. There were 7 of us and we all participated in making the pasta. We ate dinner with good wine on the balcony at their country home. The view was wonderful.

The hospitality and setting were very memorable. And I can now make my own Italian pasta with confidence.

100/10 would recommend this to anyone who goes to Bologna. Upon getting picked up, we were driven by Flaminia to their house on the hills. While on the way, we chatted about some Bolognese history and we actually learned quite a bit. Once we got to the house, we were greeted by cold drinks (super appreciated because of the heat) + coffee, and we walked around their garden. Oh, there are also a bunch of cute doggies! Once the activity began, we were carefully guided throughout the process. My husband typically asks a lot of questions, and all were answered patiently haha. After the whole process, we were offered wine and homemade tea, which we enjoyed with the two pasta dishes we created. It was a truly a wonderful experience and we would recommend this to anyone considering!

What an incredible experience! When I met the car on a corner of Bologna, I had no idea what to expect. We drove about 20 minutes out of the city to a picturesque hillside home. There, we gathered as new friends and made a delicious meal. We made fresh pasta, rolling our classic tortellini by hand. We also made a traditional cookie filled with homemade jam. The family is a delight, and they have created such a warm and authentic learning space. I can't recommend this highly enough!

We had the most wonderful day! First, The personal property outside the city was beautiful. We were made so welcome! We felt like family friends! The lesson was so interesting and fun. And then the icing on the cake was sharing a meal (that we made) with our new group of friends from around the world! We have spent a month in Italy and this has been one of the highlights of the trip! I highly recommend it!!! Would do it again!! It was an activity the entire family enjoyed! I wish I could have had several DAYS of lessons!!!

The very best way to live an Italian experience is through food! This private cooking class took place on an organic farm in a 17th century estate in the quiet and gorgeous countryside hills of Bologna. The experience offered us the opportunity to take a traditional Bolognese cooking lesson (recipe and techniques generations old) and enjoy the fruits of our labor. Being in the home of this talented chef and her adoring daughter, we met new friends and fell in love with all the rescue pups. Magical. Truly unforgettable. Grazie, Flaminia and Chef Elizabetta. We will never forget this day. #tagliatellealragù #tortelloni

Amazing family that hosts this cooking class in their lovely hillside home. Other than learning how to make (and eat!) amazing pasta, we also enjoyed learning about the local history and experiencing the local culture.
