Experience Details
Ciao! I’m a local chef, licensed Gastronomy Guide, and proud Bologna resident. Featured in Forbes Magazine as a sought-after culinary expert, I’ve honed my skills in some of Emilia Romagna’s finest kitchens, including a Michelin-starred restaurant. Join me for an unforgettable journey through Bologna’s rich food heritage.
We’ll start at Piazza Maggiore, exploring the iconic Quadrilatero Market. I’ll reveal the secrets of Parmigiano Reggiano, artisanal salumi, and mortadella, while you enjoy torta from a historic shop. You’ll taste Emilia’s finest: salumi, cheeses, breads, and wines like Pignoletto and Lambrusco, plus 25-year-old Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale from Modena.
Next, meet the Sfogline at a pasta shop, try your hand at shaping pasta, and savor a classic dish at a local trattoria. We’ll wander through Mercato delle Erbe, discover hidden gems, and end with the best gelato in the city. Let’s explore Bologna together—one bite at a time!
