What we’re about
Hello Pasta Lovers!
This group is for people with a passion for pasta, making connections and having fun while learning together!
We organize pasta making workshops in Den Haag every 2 weeks.
We think learning to make pasta is a great way to get to know new people, bond over a drink while tasting your saucy masterpiece!
You can start with the Beginner Workshop, and then learn how to make colorful pasta, or dive into the world of filled pasta. There is no limit to creativity!
Who we are:

Our pasta-making journey began in the warm kitchens of our grandmas every Sunday, and we've carried that love into our own kitchen!
We're always excited to dive into new ideas, play with colors, shapes, flavors, and textures, and share our passion with you!
