Cesarine: Home Cooking Class & Meal with a Local in Rimini

It was such a beautiful afternoon. 1000% would recommend to go. Patrizia and her family are very warm and welcoming. To top it off, her home and dog are so lovely!

My wife and I had a wonderful time with Tatiana. The dishes that we prepared under her expert guidance were absolutely delicious!!! It was a memorable experience and lots of fun.

We had an incredible experience during the cooking class with Patrizia! She was attentive, welcoming, and very helpful, sharing fascinating insights into the local Italian cuisine, regional specialties, and her family’s traditions. We were also impressed by her beautiful home, which made the experience even more special. In the end, our lasagna turned out absolutely delicious! We highly recommend this class to anyone who would like to experience authentic Italian hospitality and learn traditional Italian cooking with Patrizia.

We had a cooking class in Bologna with Rosa Lucente. Having done many tours and cooking classes, our experience with Rosa will forever be our most memorable and cherished experience by far! She is an amazing cook and teacher. We learned so much. And I come from a family of italian cooks! We made pasta and filled it with the wonderful flavors. One of dishes we made was a ravioli filled with shrimp. Rosa added a simple tomato sauce and the dish was off the hook! The cooking experience was so fun and educational, but the time we spent with Rosa was priceless. She is a truly beautiful woman with a genuinely kind spirit. We fell in love with her. I highly recommend taking a class with her. You won't be the same after. Rosa, if you're seeing this, Grazie Mille! Ti vogliamo bene!!

5 stars truly isn’t enough for Pati and her unforgettable cooking masterclass in Rimini. From the moment we arrived at her home, we were met with such a beautifully warm and welcoming atmosphere into an authentic Italian family kitchen. Everything was spotless and thoughtfully prepared, with the freshest ingredients laid out and ready, which made the whole experience feel even more special. This wasn’t just a cooking class… It was a genuine cultural experience. Pati is, without exaggeration, an exceptional teacher. Her patience, kindness and natural ability to guide us through each step made everything feel possible, despite our lack of experience! She took the time to explain not just the “how,” but the “why,” sharing traditional techniques and little secrets you simply wouldn’t find anywhere else. Her knowledge of Italian cooking is deeply rooted in tradition and delivered with so much passion. Every moment felt personal, like learning from a true Nonna who genuinely wants you to succeed. By the end of the class, we felt confident enough to go home and recreate everything myself, which is something I never expected. If you’re in Rimini, this is an absolute must!!! I feel so grateful to have not only made a memory I’ll treasure forever, but to have also learnt a very useful skill! I cannot recommend Pati and her masterclass highly enough. An experience you just can’t beat!

Patrizia is an amazing chef, and her technique is great. When my daughter who can speak fluent English came for a lesson, Patti managed to understand what she was saying almost perfectly. She took things slowly and her mother who lives along with her really helped make the experience more comforting. The food she taught my daughter to make was fun and family-friendly, and very easy to make! Next time we come to Rimini, we will 100% come here again. 3 hours of happy and interactive cooking well spent! 100% recommend.

Absolutely incredible experience! Patrizia’s cooking lesson was the highlight of our time in Rimini. We had so much fun learning to make tiramisu, Strozzapreti, and ravioli from scratch in a warm, traditional family setting. Patrizia’s hospitality made us feel right at home, and the meal we enjoyed together was truly unforgettable—so much better than anything you could get at a restaurant. Highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for authentic Italian cooking and wonderful memories. Five stars!

Great experience! As soon as you arrive at her house and you walk through her beautiful garden beam everything out of Italy! Patrizia is very welcoming and you feel equally welcome in her home. Her mother also helped and we meet her husband and son. That made our experience even more homely than it was. We made limoncello sorbet because we don't like tiramisu very much. Made our own piadinas and of course pasta! We ate at a nice set table, on the porch overlooking the garden! And finally we got a yet another tasting of different homemade limoncello! All in all highly recommended!

Course to make piadina At Patrizia's house where, with her husband, she welcomes you and makes you feel at home. Beautiful evening, fun and engaging. After the lesson, with excellent results I would say, we had dinner with our piadine and many other good dishes prepared by Patrizia. Super recommended

Patrizia is so kind and lovely to learn from! We made pasta, piadina and tiramisu. The whole class was fun, and we got to learn about the history of the food we were making as well. Patrizia is very knowledgeable and was such a pleasure to hang out with. She has such a beautiful home and lovely personality. We will come see her again next time we visit Rimini!
