Meet your guide at Piazza Farnese
Lined with quaint cafes and bursting with local life, Piazza Farnese is the perfect spot to meet your guide and begin your foodie adventure.
Roman Salumeria
First up is a family-owned deli serving prosciutto, salami, cheeses, and local wines, and offering secrets of century-old techniques.

Less romantically known as salted cod, this traditional dish involves salting, drying, and rehydrating cod for a flaky yet tender texture.
Saltimbocca alla Romana
A must-try is the flavor-packed Saltimbocca alla Romana, made with thin slices of veal that are topped with prosciutto and sage.
Homemade pasta
Now, it’s time to discover the refined tastes of homemade pasta at a local eatery. Savor the quality ingredients cooked to perfection.

1st stop was the best IMO; Prosecco, biscotti, taps and Pavlova. Restaurant owner was very generous. The rest was not that memorable...

Ilaria was absolutely amazing as our food tour guide. She took us to some of the best local food places but my absolute favorite was Da Vitoria. I loved this restaurant so much my husband and I are eating dinner here tonight. I seriously enjoyed her as our guide and hearing stories about some of the things she experienced as a child here in Rome. I would highly recommend her

Gabriel was a charming and warm host. The rain did not deter our fun. Excellent commentary and camaraderie in the eternal city. The food was a true delight for the senses. We felt as if we learned about the true Roman foods and traditions. Grazie Mille Gabriell!

This was such a great evening. Helped along by our guide, Dimitri. His friendliness and knowledge really added to the ease of the evening. We have had a couple of food tours when the guide has not joined in, and it feels this is good enough for you. But I wouldn’t eat here. He joined right in with us and really added to the experience.

Our guide for this tour was Gabrielle. He was very passionate in his descriptions and backgrounds of the different dishes. First venue was appetizers, then off to the second which was on a nice courtyard. Third was dinner which was pasta and meat. Right next door was a gelato shop to finish the the night. A great experience
