Pasta and much more. - From start to finish a delightful experience with a family who share their amazing 17th century home located in the hills outside Bologna along with their culinary expertise and passion. Flaminia’s knowledge of local history combined with chef Elizabetta’s skill as an instructor, delicious traditional recipes, relaxed pace, and delicious wine made for a truly memorable few hours. Highly recommend!!!

Delightful cooking experience in the hills above Bologna - This cooking lesson with our beautiful chefs was one of the absolute highlights of our 3 week tour of Northern Italy focusing on food. We were picked up in town and drove up into the bucolic hills, learned to prepare our own fresh pastas, and ate on a lovely terrace overlooking the countryside. It was a wonderful experience.

I can’t recommend this enough! - Our trip to bologna would not have been the same without this wonderful afternoon with this family. Flaminia gave us an informative tour in route to her home. It was amazing to get outside the city. And her home is a dream! The cooking with her sister, her mother and their 5 friendly dogs was authentic and delicious.

Unforgettable experience that exceeds your expectations - This has been the most memorable experience of our trip. There's so much good to say about this trip that it's hard to know where to start.
If you are looking to learn how to make pasta in an authentic way along with patient instructors, look no further.
If you are looking to get a taste of what the countryside in Italy is like, along with the company of some lovely dogs, look no further.
If you are looking to simply spend time with a wonderful family and exchange culture, ideas and laughs, look no further.
If you want a satisfied belly filled with dishes which have been picked by what is currently the freshest in the season, look no further.
We just had such a great time, and we can wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone else. I'm confident enough in this recommendation to tell you to just book it.
Thanks for the amazing experience!

Lovely, authentic cooking session in the countryside - We had a truly perfect time in Ca‘Bianca. The service of collecting us from the meeting point and bringing us back there after the course worked perfectly. We were picked up by the very pleasant daughter of the chef who provided us with interesting facts and history of the city Bologna along the way to the charming house in the countryside. The warm welcoming inside with a homemade cake and tea was a lovely start. In the kitchen we had the opportunity to learn how to make fresh pasta (in our case it was Tagliatelle and Tortelloni) from the inspiring qualified chef Elisabetta with fresh, organic and high quality ingredients. The taste was just delicious and the amount of pasta more than enough. The vine accompanied to the pasta was another nice extra. We can truly recommend the cooking session which felt more like visiting good friends on the countryside then having a lession thanks to the welcoming atmosphere.

Highlight of our trip to Italy - What a wonderful day spent with this lovely family. My husband and I brought our son and daughter in law to learn true Italian cooking as all our Italian grandmothers are not with us. Just full of heart, great food, wine and delightful conversation. Stunning setting and a real treat. The pups are sweet and add to a special day. If you’re considering this just do it. Highlight of our trip.

High expectations .. exceeded! - We had such high expectations and were so excited to travel to the food capital of the world to learn how to make authentic pasta and bolognese sauce .. little did we know, however, that we would be warmly escorted by a local family to their hilltop villa that organically values and produces much of the ingredients they use .. to be truly treated as welcomed, family guests in their beautiful home and then step-by-step educated in a hands-on culinary adventure on how to prepare traditional pasta and bolognese .. recipes that we will surely take home and share with our families and friends in the US .. The Mother-Daughter Team of Flaminia and Elizabeth could not have more lovingly and effectively hosted and communicated with us throughout the entire relaxing experience .. we felt their passion for sharing their longstanding family recipes .. step by step they taught us how to replicate them and they then sat us down for dinner in their home, like family, to wine and dine on our efforts. THANK YOU FLAMINIA AND ELIZABETH! WE will remember you forever and are so grateful. XO
