Itinerary

Meet your chef at the restaurant

Your tour begins at a professional restaurant Via Giuseppe Zanardelli 14. After a quick introduction to the kitchen and tools, you will tie on your apron and prepare to dive into the world of Italian flour and eggs.

Layer a classic tiramisu

You will first assemble this famous dessert by layering coffee-soaked ladyfingers with rich mascarpone cream. Learning the proper balance of cocoa and espresso ensures the dessert sets perfectly while you move on to the savory portion of the afternoon.

Knead the perfect pasta dough

Next, your chef teaches you the physics of flour and eggs to create a pliable, golden dough from scratch. You will feel the texture change as you knead the mixture before stretching and cutting it into traditional shapes like fettuccine.

Select your traditional Roman sauce

Once your pasta is ready, you will choose between iconic local sauces like savory cacio e pepe or zesty tomato and basil. Your chef explains the history of these regional recipes while the kitchen prepares your noodles to be served al dente.

Your tour finishes with wine and limoncello

Your tour finishes at the dining table where you will feast on your handmade meal with your fellow students. After enjoying your pasta and chilled tiramisu, you will end the session with a zesty glass of limoncello.

We had such a fun time at the cooking class! Our kids were the only young ones there, but everyone had a fantastic time. We loved learning how to make fresh pasta and tiramisu, and getting to sit down and enjoy what we made was the perfect ending. Everything was absolutely delicious! We also received the recipes to take home, which was a wonderful bonus and means we can recreate a little taste of Italy at home.
