The best cooking classes in Ravenna happen right in local family kitchens, where passionate home cooks share generations-old secrets. I love these intimate sessions because they’re practical, hands-on, and typically include essentials like pasta-making and tiramisu preparation. Each student gets their own workstation and plenty of personal attention. The highlight for me is the final feast, where you’ll enjoy your creations paired with regional wines. These family-run classes offer better value and authenticity than commercial cooking schools. Let’s look at my favorite cooking experiences in Ravenna.
