Culinary Experiences and Cooking Classes in Rome

The best carbonara I have had! A great experience in Rome and Marco was an excellent teacher

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.

Cristina was fantastic and this was a great experience.

Wonderful experience. He was such a fun guy. Highly recommend it. It is a great family time.

We had the most amazing experience! We were confused and went to the wrong location, but when we finally got to our destination, they were very welcoming and understanding of our confusion. They waited for us and made the whole evening very special! They did have to make the tiramisu ahead of time because we were late, but they explained to us how to make it and showed us the ingredients. Fabio was amazing. He was so kind, funny, entertaining and patient lol! We made two kinds of pasta (our choice) and it turned out amazing with Fabio's help. The tiramisu was amazing also! This activity is a must do and the place to do it is with this “in Rome cooking “organization. I actually believe I can make pasta when I get home.
