Venice Cooking Class in Mestre Pasta and Tiramisu Wine

About this tour

Learn to roll pasta and layer tiramisu in a proper kitchen just outside Venice, in Mestre. This three-hour session with a local cook covers technique for both dishes, followed by eating what you've made alongside regional wine or soft drinks and espresso. You'll take home the recipes so you can replicate it at home.

• Get digital recipe files to recreate dishes later
• No Venice entrance fees or gondola rides required

What to expect

You'll work in a home kitchen rather than a commercial studio—expect close quarters and genuine domestic cooking rhythms. The host will guide you through rolling pasta sheets and cutting shapes, then building tiramisu with proper technique. You'll spend the final hour eating together with wine or soft drinks and coffee, discussing what you've prepared. Bring an appetite; the pasta course and dessert are substantial. The kitchen is fully accessible, and prams or strollers work if you're bringing young children.
