Shared Experience
Your experience
Learn how to make real lasagna bolognese and discover all the secrets of this iconic recipe! We'll start with a welcome drink, enjoying a glass of Prosecco. Then we'll get down to business: I'll guide you through the preparation of the egg pasta sheet, which we'll roll out with a rolling pin as tradition dictates, the béchamel sauce and the classic Bolognese sauce, cooked slowly to bring out all its flavor. Once ready, our lasagna will go into the oven and, when golden brown and irresistible, we will taste it together, accompanied by a selection of local wines. To end on a sweet note, we will enjoy a creamy homemade fiordilatte gelato, enhanced by the unmistakable Fabbri black cherries! I'll be waiting for you in a location with attention to the smallest details in the hills of Bologna!

- Without question, Roberta made our trip to Bologna worthwhile with her outstanding hospitality, incredible setting for learning, and of course, the outcome! The food was delicious, the learning was genuine, each person had the opportunity to learn, and we couldn't have asked for a better cultural and epicurean guide to help us immerse into the essence of Italian Cuisine! We owe her a big thank you!!!
- Without question, the best experience we had in Bologna was with Roberta’s cooking class. She was funny and what a great hostess. What you would expect from a great family host. An elevated experience in every regard. I cannot enough stress the great class, enjoyment and environment suited for learning this craft. ❤️ Roberta is a class act.
- I was absolutely inspired by the lovely evening with Roberta, who taught me some pasta-making tricks! Thank you, dear Roberta, I'll try it out with my daughter!
- Roberta's pasta-making class was truly exceptional! From the moment we arrived, she created a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made everyone feel instantly at home. The experience began with delicious appetizers and perfectly paired wines that set the tone for an authentic Italian culinary adventure. What made this class special was Roberta's genuine passion for pasta-making, which shone through in her detailed demonstrations. As she prepared a mouthwatering ragù, she shared family secrets and techniques passed down through generations. The rich aromas filling the room were simply intoxicating! The hands-on portion was where Roberta truly excelled. She patiently guided each of us through the pasta-making process, offering personalized attention and gentle corrections. Her encouraging approach made even first-timers feel accomplished as we transformed simple ingredients into beautiful pasta. Roberta's expertise was matched only by her kindness and hospitality. She answered every question thoughtfully and shared stories that connected us to the cultural significance of the dishes we created. This class was more than a cooking lesson—it was an immersive cultural experience that left us with both delicious memories and practical skills to recreate the magic at home. Grazie mille, Roberta!
- Roberta was incredible. We learned to make lasagna bolognese style and enjoyed wine and then gelato. Roberta even prepared me a mortadella mousse that was to die for. 5 stars and highly recommend!

Roberta
Cesarina from 2023Location: Bologna Languages: Italian, English, FrenchI love my kitchen both as a space and as a working environment. I enjoy getting my hands in the dough to make pasta, including thin sheets and shortcrust pastry. Being Tuscan, my cuisine is a blend of Tuscan and Emiliana traditions. From the typical lasagna and tagliatelle to the classic Tuscan pappa al pomodoro, my kitchen represents a fusion of these regional influences. The journey through traditional flavors continues with favorites like tiramisu and the iconic Prato biscuits, perfect for dipping into Vin Santo. My kitchen reflects my passion for tradition and the joy of sharing these gastronomic pleasures with others.
