Portici Academy is the cooking school those interested in learning more about the art
of traditional and contemporary Italian cuisine.
WHO WE ARE
Located under Bologna’s iconic Two Towers, the Portici Academy offers cooking classes to those who are wishing to improve their skills or those who want to try for the first time.
The Academy was initially founded with the aim of training chefs, pasta makers, and bartenders for their own stores, then we decided to open our doors to the public, offering high quality cooking classes to beginners and professionals, thanks to the collaboration with professionals and qualified teachers.
Here you will find classes in which you can learn the art of fresh pasta-making using a rolling pin, starting from the iconic flour and egg “volcano”, to the creation of every pasta shape. You can also find baking classes, discover the different cuisines of the world, join professional one-to-one courses, try different kinds of colored and aromatic pasta and much more.
The Academy is structured to host professional and amateur classes, as well as corporate team building or private events.
WHERE WE ARE
Portici Academy welcomes cooking enthusiasts under the Two Towers, in the heart of Palazzo Melchiorre Bega, which is fully equipped to teach cooking theory and practice.
