One of my favorite... - One of my favorite experienced in Bologna. You have a personalized class with a chef that owned a local restaurant. You're taught everything from creating a ragu to building dough (properly) to rolling and cutting for parpadelle. You even create a few tortollinos for a second helping of food. It was amazing and the chef was the best part. He was a genuine great guy who i had a wonderful chat with me about MLB baseball. Highly recommend for foodies. Learnign chefs. And jus those that want to enjoy a dofferent side of cuisine.

Authentic Italian Cookery Lesson - Enjoyed this experience in a traditional Italian kitchen. Antonio was really friendly and made us feel very welcome.

Cooking has never been so fun! - Antonio was an absolute delight. Not only a talented professional chef, but so friendly and personable. My brother and I went together and we had a fabulous time with Antonio. We will definitely be visiting him again on our next visit to Italy. The recipes we made were absolutely delicious and we’re very happy to bring the recipes home with us to share with our family and friends. Highly recommend.

Antonio was great in... - Antonio was great in every interaction, from before the class he messaged to introduce himself and provided clear instruction on what we would be cooking and helpful instructions to get to his place. You can tell Antonio has a love for cooking as his enthusiasm and storytelling make you laugh and demonstrate his passion for his role. Thank you for an amazing class.

The food was delicious... - The food was delicious and Antonio was a wonderful host! Antonio was very knowledgable, and friendly, had lots of interesting stories to share, and gave us tips for our time in Bologna. Thank you for a wonderful, memorable evening Antonio! We're looking forward to recreating the recipes when we get home.

Best class and best chef ever! - We loved our class with Antonio! He taught us a lot about pasta and ragù and was an entertaining and informative teacher. He is so warm and friendly. If you are considering taking a pastas-making class in Bologna, DO NOT miss this class with Antonio!! We highly recommend him. Our time with Antonio was the highlight of our stay in Bologna.

Not your typical cooking class!! - As you muddle through the vast array of cooking classes feeling unsure about which is the best choice. If they all sound the same and what you are looking for is not only a cooking class but a true Italian experience you are in the right place. This is NOT your typical cooking class! Antonio is far from typical. My daughter and I left knowing that this was a tour we would never forget. We have been on several tours in Italy that were truly amazing and Italy has some amazing things to experience but none that compared to meeting and working with Antonio! It was the best and most unforgettable time we have had in Italy. And Antonio is not forgettable or typical. He is exuberant, warm, kind, eccentric, passionate, emotional, complimentary, humourous, compassionate, very Italian and man can be cook! He's truly a master chef and as we enjoyed sipping some wonderful Italian wine we got a real education in cooking and preparing Italian food. His surroundings of his humble kitchen don't feel perfect or sterile. They feel like a place where he surrounds himself with little things that he loves that makes one feel at home. And the thing he obviously loves the most is the art of cooking. The Ragu he taught is to make is like experiencing an explosion of flavors in your mouth. Fireworks with each color representing a different taste all coming together to make what my daughter and I considered to be the best Ragu we had ever tasted. He encouraged us when creating the filling for the tortellini to add our own personal essence to the flavour to make it personally our own. More Parmesan? More salt? He was patient, encouraging and kind as we learned the fine art of making the hand made pasta which certainly was not as simple as throwing some eggs into flour and getting this perfect dough. To get the pasta to be the perfect texture it took work and technique that clearly must be practiced over time. We laughed, we worked, we chatted, and my daughter and I truly felt we got to know this wonderful man, Antonio and he was the best part of the experience. And this was not just a class. It was an experience and one we will never forget because to meet Antonio is to love Antonio and he will leave his impression on your heart. We feel that during this little class we have truly experienced Italy in the best possible way! Antonio thank you for the wonderful time and wonderful learning experience. Our family will adore us when we go home and cook this amazing meal for them. You are priceless and from here on out will always be considered a friend.

Pasta and fun - Excellent few hours in the company of Antonio. We made a ragu for the tagliatelle that we made and a butter sauce for the tortelloni. Would say the main exercise was making the 2 pastas from scratch. Loads of helpful hints on the way before tucking in with a bottle of wine at the end. Apart from the food aspect Antonio is an interesting and knowledgeable guy to chat to. We went way over the alloted time. Was about a 20 minutes walk from heart of Bologna. Would recommend no problem.

Good experiance - Good Wine, Best Food and Gentle Cook. Was a fabulous Evening. We learned much about the Italien cooking
