What To Expect
Calestano is not on most maps. That's exactly the point.
Tucked in the Parma hills, this is where my mother Nadia and I, Virginia, open our home — and our kitchen — to a small group of guests (max 8) for a hands-on pasta experience that feels nothing like a class.
Oh, and our cats Cesare & Cindy will probably be there to welcome you too.
Together we'll make two traditional pastas from scratch : soft ricotta ravioli and silky tagliatelle, using seasonal organic ingredients — many picked straight from our garden.
Love truffles? Local black truffle, harvested right here in these hills, is available as an optional add-on.
After cooking, you'll sit down on our panoramic terrace for a proper Italian meal : local antipasti, Parmigiano Reggiano, your freshly made pasta with homemade sauce, my family tiramisù, and plenty of local wine.
No car needed — I can arrange a private transfer from central Parma on request. Just let me know when you book.
Like hungry. Leave feeling like family.
