We had a marvelous time with Olga! She is a great teacher and very personable. She was very patient and encouraging with us. We had great conversation and learned a lot. She even sent us recipes after we had left. We made 4 types of pasta, two filled and two not filled. She showed us techniques to mix the ingredients and to roll the dough to get it thin without overworking it. We also made tiramisu! Overall, it was one of the highlights of our 3 week trip through Italy. We recommend it as highly as we can!

My class with Olga was so much more than cooking. Olga generously shared her extensive knowledge of the ingredients, the history and culture surrounding the dishes. She skilfully guided me through the cooking processes, before we shared the meal together. Olga is a generous, skilful and empathetic teacher, and I strongly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn the finer points of Bolognese fresca pasta.

Olga is such a heartwarming and highly competent teacher! She doesn't just show you the techniques, but also explains the "why" behind the steps or the history behind the dishes. There are truly no words to describe how much I enjoyed our cooking classes and how much I appreciate her as a person. I am so thankful for the wonderful time we spent together. I highly recommend taking one of her classes. I would definitely come back every time I'm in Bologna!

We had the best afternoon making pasta fresca and tiramisu with Olga. She was an expert host - very warm and welcoming, generous and she shared so many amazing techniques. I would highly recommend her classes for an authentic experience and delicious food!

Olga was incredible! She is incredibly knowledgeable about food and really knows what she's talking about. As someone who is already very into cooking and making pasta, she taught me so many new tips and tricks. On top of that, due to some last minute rescheduling with the platform there had been some mix ups on the class, which she handled incredibly well and resolved the confusion swiftly. Me and my husband had so much fun with our time with her and we couldn't recommend her more!
