Popular Cooking Classes in Rome

I signed up for this activity alone while my family did a traditional sightseeing tour of Rome. The meeting point was very easy to find, and we started with a sandwich snack before the class started. The terrace was beautiful and the Prosecco was flowing! We learned many different pasta techniques and watched demos for making the sauce. The class was very well organized and well timed. The only downsides were: (1) all the pasta is dumped together to be cooked, so you might not get your own pasta back, (2) the meal was light on dessert (but there was still plenty to eat). The total time was closer to 2.5 hours. Very happy I booked this activity!

This experience was by far the best part of my visit to Rome. The class was fun and enjoyable. We learned inside tips on making excellent pasta and tiramisu from an expert. Being able to eat the fruits of our labor was such a treat. The added bonus of receiving the recipes along with a photo of our class makes this a memorable experience for days to come. I highly recommend this workshop a must do for anyone wanting to experience and take home a special part of the culture of Rome.

Had a great time, made a real change from the usual sightseeing day out - the activity started slowly, as a family of 9 (!) had turned up on the wrong day, but the staff took it all in stride and made it work; by the end we were chatting to people from all over the world and having a grand old time of it. The food was pretty good too: mentally subtract the cost of a big meal + wine from the price and it's good value if you ask me. Great fun.

I booked this last minute as I'm currently travelling solo. This experience was definitely one of the highlights for my trip. Chef "Joe" was incredibly patient and very engaging. Always offering our group individual attention to make sure we were doing the tasks correctly. The dishes were delicious, and not just because we made them ourselves. I would definitely recommend that you add this experience to your to-do list when visiting Rome.

Chef Emanuele Faini teaches making pasta by hand, step by step. First he demonstrates then students follow along, getting guidance along the way. We made ravioli pasta and filling, fettuccine pasta. We learned how to make simple tomato sauce. This class is a great way to take Italy home. I look forward to making pasta for friends and family!
