Please wear comfortable shoes and you might bring an umbrella, then again you might not as Padua is renowned for its porticoes.

We will welcome our guests in the Murano studio, where many of our crafts and contemporary art works are exhibited. After a first presentation of what we do, we will illustrate to the guests the technique practiced by Andrea, the lampworking of the glass, which is carried out with a small flame and which is used to produce small glass objects. After a first demonstration made by Andrea, in which the glass rods will melt to show how small objects are produced, the guests will be guided towards the production of some simple glass elements (mainly small colored beads). The artifacts that guests will be able to produce can be brought home. For those who do not want to work directly with fire, assembly activities of semi-washed elements can be proposed, with the technique used by Murano women in the past, "insedà", through which flowers or other natural elements can be made. Other things to note The experience is suitable for both individuals and small groups of maximum 4 people.

Ciao!!! We will introduce each other and you will be given a white apron and be assigned to a working station. Let's start!!! First of all you will make the original Bolognese sauce following Italian grandmothers' recipe. You will peel and chop the vegetables, season the mince meat, prepare the tomato sauce and cook all together under the Chef instructions. While the sauce is simmering in the the frying-pan you will start "getting dirty" and make the dough with flours and eggs. Once the dough is ready we will stretch and cut it so as to create our Tagliatelle. After that we will place the pasta on a wooden board and put the water to boil to cook our pasta. Once we have cooked the pasta and mixed it with the sauce we will sit together and enjoy our home-made Italian pasta. Along the experience you will be offered unlimited wine and drinks so that you won't be thirsty. At the end of the course you will receive a file containing all the instructions to prepare Tagliatelle Bolognese back home. Other things to note If you have flour allergies this is not the experience suitable for you.
