Bolognese Home Cooking Class in Bologna’s Historic Center

Wonderful cooking experience. Margherita is knowledgeable and engaging and very welcoming. A genuine pleasure, thank you, I learned a lot and felt very humbled to be welcomed in to her home. A brilliant experience and will take away great lessons and tips. Would highly recommend

A really nice afternoon with the lovely Margherita. We were so well taken care of. My daughter 23 and my son 21 years old learned a lot about Bologna and the surroundings as well as the food. We first took a walk in Bologna's food district and then cooked together some delicious Italian pasta. And tiramisu! Margaritha was generous and patient with us. So happy that we had this opportunity to meet the lovely Margaritha.

One of my family’s favorite memories from our 10 day Italian trip! Margherita was so welcoming, we loved touring the market, and food was incredible! Her apartment is located in the university area, with a conservatory nearby - so we were treated to arias from operas throughout our class. That combined with views of the beautiful courtyard, amazing food and wine - this was a wonderful experience that my family will never forget!

Highly recommended. Very friendly and knowledgeable teacher. The food we made was delicious. Very nice way to spend a morning.

Thanks so much to margarita for her patience and kindness. My son and I loved visiting her home and learning how to make pasta properly! Delicious menu too. Apartment is super location for those staying in historical centre.

Very interesting tour of the markets, great cooking class and delicious food & vino. Marguerite was generous with her time, knowledge and experience. We loved that it was so personal.

Margarita was fantastic! My mom and I took her class and it was amazing, in food, technique, recommendations, and all-around experience. We’d absolutely suggest her class for anyone coming to Bologna!

It was a real fun experience and the food was great! We had a really nice group and the cook Valentina was great! The drinks included are great!

Margherita gave us a fantastic, personal cooking class in her charming home. It was a magical evening. Nextdoor a student was practicing opera singing which added to the wonderful ambiance! Once we receive a copy of the recipes from Margherita, we plan to make the dishes at home. We highly recommend her class!

Super walk, shopping, cooking and dining! A coffee in town on a terrace overlooking the two towers, a great beginning.

Thank you for a wonderful cookery lesson, lunch and tour today. We both thoroughly enjoyed it and are looking forward to the left overs tonight! We have shared the photos and videos with our family so they are expecting a high standard of cooking when we get home. We are off shopping for ingredients and pasta cutting tools next.

Fun experience! We really enjoyed our time with Margherita! We started the morning off with a coffee and treat overlooking the towers then browsed the market for our cooking ingredients. Back at her apartment Margherita tailored the meal for us vegetarians and it was a casual and informative cooking experience. The food was delicious and we highly recommend.

Incredible evening of cooking, food and history! The whole experience was amazing. Margherita was friendly, knowledgeable and a great cook! We did the market tour option and explored the historic market a short walk away. We were blown away with the produce and tried some local fruits, wine and ice cream while learning about local produce and history. The cooking itself was incredible, we assisted to make a delicious three course meal. Everything was provided which made for a great experience, including some local cheese and olives to nibble on. The food all tasted fantastic, and we had such a great time. I can't recommend Margherita highly enough, if you are considering a cooking class choose this one for a fantastic, authentic, experience.

Who knew I Could Make Pasta From Scratch We had a lovely evening with Margherita who welcomed us into her home. What a beautiful and historic view out the windows! We could hear music from the university students and the ringing of the church bells. Margherita was an excellent instructor and made the cooking so fun and easy! I was able to write down the recipe so I can make when I return home. We made Tortelloni from beginning to end and it was delicious. The Frittata can easily be made at home and who knew I could make Tiramisu that was more delicious than what I ate in the restaurant!! We enjoyed learning more about Bologna and also about different foods from this region. Margherita was so hospitable and this evening will forever be a cherished memory from our trip to Italy!!

Memories you will not forget! Margherita was so hospitable, kind and such a joy. We each shared family stories and were enriched with the time we spent with her. She made the cooking so much fun and even I could do it. The food was delicious and the wine was perfect. Brought back memories of sweet special times with family. If you are looking for an evening to create memories you will not forget, do not miss this!.

Wonderful evening and cooking class What a great cooking class and wonderful evening together with Margherita and her family. We made delicious food, fritta, pasta and tiramisu, and I will certainly remake it all at home. I loved beeing a part of the family for the evening.

Great Night with Margherita, highly recommend! We had the loveliest afternoon and evening with Margherita! She completely customized our time and figured out quickly what we were interested in. She was patient and a great guide around the city center as we completed some last minute shopping before heading back to the US. She showed us some great little shops, invited us to her favorite Gelateria, and even took us for a glass of wine at the oldest continually operating osteria. Once back at her apartment we had a great time learning from her, got lots of practical cooking tips, and now we feel confident in pasta making! Each course she showed us how to make was accessible and we will absolutely replicate each dish back at home. I can’t recommend Margherita highly enough, what a charming and warm host for our last night in Italy!

Wonderful experience. Margherita was a fantastic host, explaining all the history of Bologna, taking us to a wonderful food market and showing us how to cook amazing Italian food. We would 100% recommend this wonderful experience with such a warm and welcoming lady. Thanks once again Margherita.
