 In 4 years of activity in my pasta shop I received many nominations: in the prestigious "Gambero Rosso" guide from 2017 and as the best among 10 pasta factories in Rome. In Italy the "pasta factory" is a place where fresh pasta is produced and sold to those who want to cook it at home. I was inspired by the pasta that my grandmother used to prepare when I was a child.

Today I dedicate myself to organizing high-value cooking classes to teach how to make fresh artisan pasta in a simple and effective way, thus managing to make all the recipes of the lesson at home.
