About this tour

You'll work through traditional hand techniques, understand ingredient selection and what makes quality pasta, then sit down to eat everything you've made plus a chef's dessert. Suits couples, families and friend groups; vegetarian adaptations available.

What to expect

You'll start with an appetiser, then move to the work surface where the chef demonstrates each stage—kneading dough, resting it properly, rolling it out and cutting shapes by hand. They'll explain why certain techniques matter and walk you through the reasoning behind the recipes. Expect your hands to get floury and your forearms to work. Midway through or as you finish, pasta goes into boiling water. You'll gather around a table to eat what you've prepared, tasting your work alongside the chef's dessert. The pace is relaxed; there's time for questions and chat about Italian food culture.
