Traditional Sardinian Fresh Pasta Workshop in Cagliari

Carlotta en Matteo zijn hele vriendelijke mensen en verwelkomden ons bij hen thuis in een aparte ruimte waar de kookles plaats vond. We hadden geluk, want wij waren de enige personen die avond die deze workshop volgden en kregen daardoor privéles. Carlotta deed eerst alles voor en Matteo vertelde veel over de stappen en tradities. Daarna mochten we het zelf proberen. Erg leuk. Na ongeveer 2 uurtjes werden we naar de tuin begeleid en mochten we allerlei gerechten proeven. Het was zelfs zoveel dat we het niet op konden. Onze eigen creaties mochten we mee naar huis nemen. Dit was echt een super leuke workshop die wij iedereen aan zouden raden.

Une expérience exceptionnelle, sans doute l’un des plus beaux moments de notre voyage en Italie. Si vous cherchez un cours de cuisine authentique chez l’habitant, foncez ! Le cadre est magnifique, la musique et le vin créent une ambiance parfaite et les plats que nous avons préparés étaient absolument délicieux. Chaque détail est soigné et nous avons été accueillis avec une grande gentillesse. On passe un véritable moment hors du temps. Un grand merci à Sophia, qui parle très bien français et nous a fait sentir comme à la maison, ainsi qu’à Carlotta et Matteo qui ont été d’une grande hospitalité et générosité. Nous recommandons cette expérience les yeux fermés !

We had such an incredible experience with Matteo and Carlotta—one that we would wholeheartedly recommend to everyone. From the moment we arrived, they welcomed us with open arms and had everything prepared for us to make Culugiones together. They patiently taught us the authentic folding techniques, while creating a relaxed atmosphere filled with laughter, great conversations, and plenty of fun. It’s clear that they put their heart and soul into what they do, and they genuinely want to share their passion with their guests. The evening continued with a wonderful selection of traditional Sardinian specialties, delicious local flavors, and the warm, welcoming hospitality that made us feel completely at home. If you’re looking for a unique, hands-on culinary experience that you’ll never forget, you simply have to visit Matteo and Carlotta. We know for certain that we’ll be coming back the next time we’re in the area! Thank you for everything!

Wonderful cooking class where we learned how to make the traditional Sardinian pasta. Mateo & Carlotta were extremely kind and gracious hosts. They have an amazing appreciation for their culture & its culinary traditions. Not only did we make pasta, we were then served meat, cheeses, breads, wine and then got to eat the wonderful pasta we made. Finished with traditional Sardinian Seada’s for dessert. An amazing experience, would recommend to anyone!

Abbiamo apprezzato moltissimo il tempo trascorso insieme a Carlotta e Matteo; abbiamo riso tanto e passato momenti splendidi. La produzione della pasta ci è stata insegnata in modo gioioso e naturale, e abbiamo potuto imparare molto sulla tecnica. Anche il luogo ci è piaciuto tantissimo. Un grande grazie agli ospiti che ci hanno guidato attraverso un corso davvero fantastico. Possiamo consigliare questo corso senza alcuna riserva!

What a great experience! Out of all the classes we looked into I’m so glad we chose this one, it exceeded our expectations. Matteo and Carlotta are so friendly and kind. We made several different filled pastas and got to enjoy some outside with many other local Sardinian treats and wine. We are staying in an Airbnb so they packed up the extra pastas we made to take home and cook another night. Truly a special experience.

Wow! What a wonderful evening. My sister and I researched many different pasta making classes around Cagliari, but decided to go with this one even though it had less reviews. We definitely made the right choice! :) Carlotta, Matteo (and Toni the adorable dog) hosted us in their peaceful and beautiful home about 25 minutes drive outside the city centre. We were shown how to make the traditional Sardinian culurgiones pasta, using fresh and local ingredients. Then we went outside to relax on the gorgeous terrace and were left enjoy the surroundings with some local meats, cheeses and wine while they cooked our pasta. We were surprised at the end with the traditional dessert of ricotta and honey fried ravioli which as delicious as everything else. It was really fun to get to know both of them as natives of the island and hear about how passionate they both are about Sardinian culture. This experience felt very personal and unique and was the highlight of our whole holiday. Book it!
