Join us at Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò for a hands-on pasta lab in collaboration with Allora BK, as Part of La Casa dei Piccoli series. An event designed for families to come together and celebrate Italian traditions through food! In this fun and interactive workshop, children will learn how to make delicious tortelli from scratch. They’ll mix and roll out fresh pasta dough, prepare a creamy ricotta filling, and assemble their own tortelli under the guidance of Allora’s expert team. More than just a cooking class, this lab is a way to bring children closer to the richness of Italian culture and the joy of good eating. To end the experience on a tasty note, everyone will enjoy a sampling of tortelli prepared by our talented Allora’s chef. Buon appetito!
