OUR STORY

OUR STORY

We’re Livia and Armando, an Italian couple living in Rotterdam.

We decided to start this journey because we wanted to share our passion for hand-making pasta with the people here in our city!

At Cuortje, we teach you to make fresh pasta the exact same way we grew up eating it: completely by hand, packed with love, and with absolutely no shortcuts.

Wondering about the name?

It’s a little mix of our two worlds! We combined Cuore (the Italian word for heart) with -tje (the sweet Dutch diminutive).

That is exactly what we’re all about: bringing our big Italian heart straight to your table, while happily supporting our amazing Dutch farmers by using their fresh, local ingredients.
We can't wait to roll up our sleeves and cook with you!

The Cuortje Experience

Master pasta making the real Nonna way

No shortcuts, no machines—just flour, eggs, and your own two hands. We’ll be right by your side, sharing family secrets and proving that you don’t need fancy gadgets to make something extraordinary. We believe in the power of touch and tradition over rigid recipe cards; everything you learn is designed to be easily recreated in your own kitchen using the simple tools you already own.


The Workshop Flow

You walk in, the flour hits the table, and within minutes your hands are in the dough. Guided by us, you’ll master every fold and shape the authentic Italian way. While the dough rests, we pause for a classic aperitivo to relax and chat. Once your work is finished, we sit down together as a family to feast on the incredible pasta you’ve just crafted.


Take the Magic at home with you

The experience doesn't end when you leave! You'll head home with your fresh, uncooked pasta to savor the flavors all over again, along with a recipe book packed with all our secrets and tips. Come hungry, and leave with handmade pasta and stories you’ll be telling at every dinner table for years to come.

The perfect family bonding activity! We had so much fun together and it was great to see everyone from the kids to the adults get involved. We’ve already had a couple of 'pasta nights' at home since!
