Review of Bologna’s home pasta class with Irene, covering food, group size, transport, value, practical tips, and who should book.
“Irene a great host. She explained the pasta making process very well and was patient with us. Then she cooked the pasta for us and we had lunch along with really good balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and ground black truffle. The only criticism I would give was that the directions to her apartment were not explained well enough. We took the bus and the directions should have said that on the opposite side of the little shopping center there were a group of apartment buildings. That is exactly where we needed to go. That’s why got confused.”
Make fresh pasta, ragù, tortellini, and tiramisu in Bologna with Alessia, then enjoy local wine in her welcoming home kitchen.
“My partner and I both really enjoyed our class with Alessia! We have always wanted to learn how to make pasta and Alessia made it fun and easy to understand. We made two different pastas and a tiramisu, and we were served a few local wines to enjoy with the dishes. Alessia not only explained the steps, but provided some history and context to the dishes as well. Everything we made turned out so delicious, and we were quite impressed with ourselves. We are so glad we took this class and we can’t wait to try making the recipes we learned back home. We would recommend this class to anyone…”

We were amazed by her talent and her heart warming presence. She was an excellent teacher and was just an incredible person to spend the morning with. She served us delicious wine to pair with the incredible pasta dishes she taught us to make. To top it off she surprised us with home made gelato and preserved cherries native to Bologna. Would 100% recommend.”

“Oh, Irene, where do I even begin? If you're seeking a truly authentic experience, look no further than Irene's. When I first booked this cooking class, I expected a generic, run-of-the-mill experience that could be replicated anywhere in the world. However, upon arriving with my husband, we were met with a delightful surprise - an Italian woman in her own home, graciously teaching us the art of crafting authentic Italian pasta. This unforgettable experience became a highlight of our trip to Italy, sparking countless conversations and memories. Thank you, Irene, for opening up your beautiful home, heart, and family to us.”
