Culinary Experiences and Cooking Classes in Rome

We took a cooking class with Alessandro today—my husband and I plus our three kids (16, 13, and 11)—and it was an absolute hit! We were joined by one other guest and spent three wonderful hours learning and cooking together in a calm, air-conditioned space (a perfect escape from the heat wave!). Alessandro was welcoming, knowledgeable, and great with both adults and kids. We made cacio e pepe, amatriciana, and homemade gelato (coffee and Nutella was the crowd favourite). Highly recommend this experience—fun, delicious, and memorable. Fingers crossed our cacio e pepe and gelato turn out just as good at home!

Our group included ranged from 4 years old to 69 years old, and he was engaging and patient for us all. The food was delicious, and there was plenty of time to cook and to relax and enjoy the snacks/drinks they provided!

Marco was our chef, and this was AMAZING! So patient and kind and fun with the kiddos and an incredible chef. Also the best pizza and gelato we’ve ever had. Highly recommend and request Marco!

We took this tour the day we landed in Rome. We have taken precious food tours and wanted to do the same in Rome. Tiziana was our tour guide for the evening stroll. She was excellent combining local history, recommendations for local cuisine, and customs locals partake in. We started out with apertivos and drinks. Next we headed to taste some local pizza. Afterwards, we headed to dinner at a local restaurant and tried two different pasta dishes with wine. Excellent flavor and freshness of the ingredients. We then walked to a local spot to try some cheeses and wine with more history. We had a short walk to taste deep fried breaded Italian noodles and then suppli. Both were excellent but we were already very full. Lastly, we ended the tour with go course, gelato. The gelato was excellent cause of the the freshness of the ingredients. Thank you to Tiziana for her fun attitude and wealth of information making our tour one to remember.

Giulio was fantastic. He was funny and knowledgeable. I felt comfortable making mistaking and learned every step of the way. The class is very beginner friendly and you leave with so many memories as well as confidence in your skills. I encourage everyone to take it while in Rome!
