Ferieboliger i Dandolo

You will learn how to make a delicious Italian pizza. We will explain you the basics of pizza: ingredients, temperature, dough rising, oven and other instruments needed to make your perfect pizza. You will receive a white apron so that you get into the cooking experience. You will be assigned a working station provided with all tools and instruments to make your best pizza. You will make the dough with your hands, you will learn how to stretch it and afterwards you will top the pizza with your favorite ingredients and cook it. We will finally sit down eating pizza and drinking all together. Other things to note If you have flour allergies this is not the experience for you.

You will immerse yourself into the natural wonder of an organic vineyard. We will tour along grape rows, where you will grasp how the plant grows and interacts with the environment. In particular, you will understand the grapevine vital sap flow: how to identify and preserve it. We will see surrounding natural plants and flowers and you will check how important it is to provide a natural balance, preventing the spreading of plant diseases. There are also honeybees in the property, and plenty of other insects. You will also see different types of birds (very important to control insects) and wild animals (deers, hares). Later on, you will step into the shoes of a winegrower. You will be pruning, selecting buds, mowing, monitoring insects, watering, tying the vine shoots, etc., according to the timing of the season. Finally, you will experience the joy to focus on simple actions and disconnect yourself from the city routine. At any time, you can stop, ask, look, take a picture, or simply breath fresh air. You decide at what pace you would like to go! Other things to note: Vineyard is organic and activity will take place outside and may involve risks, including but not limited to: insect bites, plant stings, sun burning, dehydration, accidental falls. Please be careful and be prepared: this is NATURE! Please tell me in advance of any particular needs. Thank you and enjoy!

Ciao!!! We will introduce each other and you will be given a white apron and be assigned to a working station. Let's start!!! First of all you will make the original Bolognese sauce following Italian grandmothers' recipe. You will peel and chop the vegetables, season the mince meat, prepare the tomato sauce and cook all together under the Chef instructions. While the sauce is simmering in the the frying-pan you will start "getting dirty" and make the dough with flours and eggs. Once the dough is ready we will stretch and cut it so as to create our Tagliatelle. After that we will place the pasta on a wooden board and put the water to boil to cook our pasta. Once we have cooked the pasta and mixed it with the sauce we will sit together and enjoy our home-made Italian pasta. Along the experience you will be offered unlimited wine and drinks so that you won't be thirsty. At the end of the course you will receive a file containing all the instructions to prepare Tagliatelle Bolognese back home. Other things to note If you have flour allergies this is not the experience suitable for you.

I will give you the place and time of the start, explain the rules and give you all you need to play, (city map and pen). The treasure hunt will last for about 2 hours. This time will enable you to walk through the streets and get a real feel for the life of the city. Please wear comfortable shoes and you might bring an umbrella, then again you might not as Padua is renowned for its porticoes. Throughout the treasure hunt I will be on hand to help and encourage you to reach the much sought-after treasure.

Padua is known throughout Italy for its magical Street Art ; in its most suggestive and hidden places, we can find artworks by Tony Gallo, Alessio B and the "italian Bansky", Kenny Random. We will take a walk in the hearth of Padua, following the Street italian artist' footprints and sipping the "Spritz", the italian aperitivo. In this way, I hope that my guests will appreciate quietly Padua, in its non tourist aspects.
