Overview

Swap group cooking classes in commercial kitchen spaces for a more intimate alternative—a private cooking lesson in a local's home. During the class, get one-to-one tuition and learn home to make 2-3 traditional Italian family recipes—including pasta, a sauce, a side dish, or a dessert. No need to worry about getting hungry, as after the class there's time to sit down and enjoy the dishes you've made with alcoholic drinks to accompany them.
  • Enjoy a special opportunity to have a private cooking class with a local
  • Discover family recipes and the secrets of Bolognese cooking
  • Toast the lesson in style—alcoholic drinks are included
  • No hunger pangs—feast on the dishes you create

        This is by far and away the best experience we have had traveling. I wish I could give this 10 stars. We cooked, we laughed and we drank wine! Giovanna was amazing and my husband and I learned so much and are excited to make this at home! I recommend you book as soon as possible!
        An experience not to miss in Bologna if you love food

        Words can’t describe how incredible an experience this was! Giovanna is truly a master of her craft! She and her family were warm and welcoming, her instructions were clear, and the food turned out perfect!! If you have the opportunity to cook with Giovanna , don’t hesitate! It will be the experience of a lifetime! She is now my friend on Facebook, and I’m excited for the opportunity to stay in touch with her, and her delightful daughters!
        Delicious experience

        It was wonderful to meet Giovanna and to learn her recipes that she learned from her grandmother. To learn how to make fresh noodles and bolognase sauce
