Culinary Experiences and Cooking Classes in Rome

We had a great evening. A truly FULL FOOD tour. Maurizio is a wonderful guide. We learned about the history of Rome and the history of the food. Thank you for nice evening.

Maurizio was a wonderful Trastevere Food Tour guide! I appreciated him sharing local history and information in addition to the history of the food. He shared how the Trastevere neighborhood got its name and the small facts about buildings and fountains as we passed by. The food was fun and very Roman. We started with an aperitivo, tried suppli, pizza bianca, fried zucchini flower, caccio e peppe, amatriciana, and gelato. Maurizio provided fun facts about the origin of the dishes, origin of ingredients, how it’s prepared, and small tidbits such as the cheese pull of the suppli is called a “phone line.” These weren’t my favorite foods I’ve had this trip, as it was very carb and cheese heavy, but I am very happy to have tried everything and some foods surprised me. I especially liked the fried zucchini flower and the potato pizza. I wouldn’t have come across those on my own. Maurizio was kind at the end of the tour to ask how we were getting back since the tour ended in a different location than it started. He even helped call the car company for us to make sure we were good! I also got some great shots of St. Peter’s Basilica in the skyline at golden hour, it was a great time to be walking around.

Wonderful experience. Friendly staff, delicious food and very kid friendly. We appreciated the hospitality of Cristiana and the whole staff. Highly recommend.

Food was great! Experience was incredible. John Luca was great!

We had an excellent food tour with Mauricio! There was so much food! Appetizers, fried cod, suppli, pizza, pasta and gelato. We had to waddle back to our hotel afterwards.
