Here’s an overview of your activity
Join me, Giuseppe, an expert pasta maker, for an exclusive hands-on cooking workshop in a beautiful penthouse near the Mercato della Erbe, offering stunning views over the Bologna Hills. In this 5-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to make traditional Italian dishes such as Tortellini, Tortelloni, Tagliatelle, Tigelle, and Ragù Bolognese. Cooking can work up an appetite, so we’ll also treat you to a tasting of Prosciutto from Parma, Mortadella, Parmigiano, and local wines from the region.
This private experience is designed just for Withlocals guests, ensuring an intimate and personalized atmosphere. Giuseppe will guide you through every step of the process—from kneading the dough to crafting perfect pasta shapes. All necessary materials, tools, and ingredients are provided, so you can focus on enjoying the fun of cooking. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned cook, you’ll leave with new skills, delicious homemade pasta, and a memorable experience. Let’s make pasta the Italian way!
This tour is also available in a shorter 3-hour version, where you'll make fewer dishes but will still become a pasta expert by the end!
