About this quest
Welcome to Bologna, where pasta is more than food—it’s tradition, pride, and mystery. You’ve arrived in the charming Piazza Pasta, home of the legendary Orsi family and their centuries-old tortellini recipe.
As an eager chef-in-training, you’ve come to learn from the best. But when whispers of a stolen recipe and culinary sabotage begin to stir, your visit takes an unexpected twist.
Follow delicious clues, solve culinary-themed puzzles, and explore the lively streets of Bologna as you uncover the secrets hidden in sauce-stained pages. This real-world adventure is perfect for friends and families who love food, fun, and discovery. Will the Orsi recipe survive… or will revenge be served al dente?
