Antonio was a great instructor, extremely knowledgeable, truly a professionally trained chef. Gave hands on instructions as we performed the tasks. Learned useful techniques and cooking skills. Tremendously enjoyed the experience with a well versed chef and individual.
your words fill my heart of great joy. Many thanks my lovely friends. It was a huge pleasure to read these wonderful words. I always try to do my best and give everything to transmit my knowledge to you. A great hug to you and my lovely princess of Brockton Ma, Sincerely Antonio
Best Ragu I’ve ever tasted! The homemade pasta was amazing as well! Would definitely recommend this experience.
Many thanks for your wonderful words. It was a pleasure receiving special people as you are. I wish you all the best Sincerely Antonio
If you do one thing in Bologna - make it this! Antonio was fantastic, we truly had the best time and learnt so much! He was so welcoming, funny and friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best day. Thank you Antonio!
your wonderful words make me happy and full of emotions. Many thanks my dears. I always try to do my best to welcome in the best possible way and to transfer my knowledge to you. Many thanks again for your wonderful words. It was a great pleasure to meet special people as you are. I wish you all the best. Sincerely Antonio
We were immediately welcomed super friendly at Antonio's home! He taught us how to make tagliatelle with ragù and tortelloni "from scratch" and it was delicious! We were allowed to try everything ourselves and immediately received tips on how we could do it better. Antonio was a real gem, he gave a lot of compliments, we were allowed to drink as much and as many as we wanted, he gladly gave us a second portion, ... Later we got the recipes and a personal tip for a restaurant (after I said I'm crazy about eggplant). We could also send him the next day for tips on where to eat and which regional products we definitely had to try. Everything is completely "tailor-made": not only the personal restaurant tips, but also for example the mix between Italian and English because my cousin doesn't speak Italian but I wanted to practice the language. Thanks to our conversations, I learned not only a lot about Italian cuisine, but also about Italy itself and the Italian language. Conclusion: we had a fantastic time with Antonio and learned so much! Don't hesitate and book this workshop!!!
You make me cry (almost) you have tiuched my heart with your lovely words. You know that to me the cooking class never ends. With many people we start lovely relantionship to help you if you need help. I am so glad to have received so Special people like you are. Many thanks again my dears Sincerely Antonio
This was the highlight of our trip to Bologna! A definite must-have experience, and you get to take recipes home to share with family and friends!! Chef Antonio was so kind, welcoming and funny. He taught us patiently and answered all of our questions. He is a wealth of knowledge. We had a magnificent time and we cannot wait to try these recipes at home!! Total it took us 3 1/2 hours ish, which was absolutely worth the money. Like others said, it is a great view into the apartment living in Bologna. Great for couples, solo, or even a group of 4! A memory to never forget!

Antonio's cooking class was a wonderful experience! He shared so many helpful tips and techniques, and his passion for cooking made the class both fun and inspiring. I left with new skills, great memories, and a real appreciation for making authentic ragù. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a genuine hands-on experience with a true chef.
Many thanks my dear. I try all the times to transmit my knowledge in a simple way to you with all my love and passion. So glad to read your wonderful words. It was a pleasure receiving a special person as you are
Wonderful experience with Chef Antonio. He was extremely welcoming and kind. We travelled as a family with children ages 18 and 13. Our kids had a great time making the pasta.
your wonderful words have filled my heart. Reading that your lovely sons have appreciated the cooking and eating (first of all) makes me the happiest man on the face of the world. Many thanks again my dears I wish you all the best. sincerely Antonio
We had a wonderful experience learning to make traditional Bolognese and fresh pasta with our professional chef, Antonio. It was an authentic, hands-on class that gave us a true appreciation for the techniques and traditions behind the recipes for homemade tagliatelle, tortoloni and Ragu sauce. Antonio was friendly, entertaining, and immediately made us feel welcome and at home. The setting is a private home, so the cooking space is cozy and intimate, which adds to the authenticity of the experience. We appreciated the thorough instruction, personal attention, and the opportunity to enjoy a home-cooked meal together. If you're looking for a genuine taste of Bologna and want to learn from a passionate local, this class is a great choice. Highly recommended!
many thanks my dears. Your wonderful words fill my heart of joy. It was a great pleasure receiving such special people as you are. I wish you all the best and again many thanks. Sincerely your Antonio
