Culinary Experiences and Cooking Classes in Rome

Christiana was fantastic! She was warm, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience fun and authentic. We learned how to make real Italian pizza from scratch and the creamiest gelato, both delicious! The class was perfectly paced, hands-on, and filled with laughter.

Marco was amazing! What an awesome experience from start to finish. We shopped for the freshest food at a farmers market and prepared it together. We learned so much and the food we made was incredible and unbelievably delicious. I highly recommend Marco!

Miguel was amazing she taught very well and very interesting to everyone 10/10 would come again

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.

We celebrated our 38th wedding anniversary taking part in this wonderful cooking class experience! Our chef, Marco, met us in Campo de’ Fiori market where we bought the fresh ingredients to make our most delicious lunch! We made gelato, eggplant Parmesan, fresh spaghetti with carbonara sauce and chicken cacciatore! One of the best meals we have had so far and Marco was a wonderful chef to spend our anniversary with!
