Trade crowded restaurants for an intimate, homey cooking studio in the heart of Bologna. This professional yet cozy space is where the soul of Bolognese hospitality meets expert culinary craft. Under the wing of a local Chef, you’ll learn to create authentic handmade tortellini using a secret family recipe passed down through generations. Master the rhythmic art of the "sfoglia" (pasta dough) and the traditional wooden rolling pin (mattarello) in a relaxed, conversational atmosphere.
The highlight? Discovering the "Golden Ritual": tasting your handmade tortellini served in a traditional steaming broth—the authentic way every Bolognese family enjoys them on Sundays. Forget industrial classes; here you are a guest in a "lived-in" studio that feels like a friend's kitchen. Finish your experience by sharing stories at a communal table, enjoying your creation paired with 2 glasses of premium Colli Bolognesi wine. You'll leave with new skills and a digital recipe kit!
