Culinary Experiences and Cooking Classes in Rome

Took this class with EF tour and Julio was very helpful! Very sweet to my deaf mother :) Amazing group!

Marco was the best! So knowledgeable and engaging!

If you’re looking for an unforgettable culinary experience in Rome, look no further than Christiana! She was absolutely incredible. From the very start, she made us feel like old friends as we walked through a local market together, handpicking the freshest ingredients—from vibrant produce to figs that tasted like candy. Back in the kitchen, she guided us with warmth, skill, and passion. Together we prepared a true Roman feast: handmade pasta stuffed with ricotta and mascarpone in a rich red sauce, perfectly seasoned meatballs (a highlight for my wife, Sandy), saltimbocca alla Romana (a personal favorite), a fresh salad topped with figs, and to finish, a decadent tiramisu. Every step was hands-on, and she balanced teaching us techniques with making the whole experience feel fun and relaxed. The food was absolutely delicious, but what really made the day special was Christiana herself—her knowledge, her patience, her humor, and the way she shared the heart of Roman cooking with us. This was so much more than a class; it was a memory we’ll carry with us forever. If you want an authentic, joyful, and delicious Roman cooking adventure, Christiana is the one to book. She’s simply the best!

The cooking class was so fun and interactive! Great for children 8+ and adults. Cristiana was amazing! Ask to make the chocolate cake, it’s so yummy!

We attended the In Rome Cooking Class with our two best friends and were transported into an Italian kitchen to learn how to prepare the famous Rome style pizza and true Italian gelato through our amazing and very talented Chef, Marco Passaro. This young, very talented and experienced teacher was incredibly knowledgeable, personable and entertaining. The four of us learned proper techniques and knowledge of all ingredients used in the preparation of our meal. Passaro and his team proved to be exemplary in the delivery of knowledge and technique and we would definitely return to Passaro for additional classes. For us, this was an exceptional experience and look forward to our next visit to Rome and to the In Rome Cooking Class. Grazie Mille to Chef Passaro and team.
