Fantastic tour and class! - Clelia gave us a great little tour of the Jewish Ghetto, then was Master of Ceremonies at our cooking class. She was so so good. On top of that, the cooking class was amazing. Chef was a greta guy. We made a delicious meal, and had a ton of fun. Highlight of the trip.

Best class ever - What an incredible experience! Lily was knowledgeable and personable, the tour before the cooking class was fun and informative. The cooking class was amazing! The chef and Lily worked together to teach us the basics of pasta making, then we were able to go into the kitchen with the chef and learn the nuances of sauce making. A full meal of our fresh pasta and hand made zucchini blossoms followed, as well as a selection of delicious desserts.

Si chef!! - One of the best bits of our trip! Our guide and chef were incredible. We were with one other couple so it was a very personal and authentic experience- topped off by plenty of wine and even some singing! We love our aprons and certificates as soveneirs. The tour through the old Jewish ghetto was very impactful also and an unexpected bonus!

Great Experience - My partner loved this so much. It was also one of her favorite meals in Rome. The guide was lovely. She really took care of us. The chef was super friendly. There isn't anything to complain about it at all.

Phenomenal Food Venture - All of the experience was phenomenal! The personable staff and wonderful food were the best experience in Italy so far! My friends and I cannot recommend this experience enough- between the helpful hints in our food ventures (or misadventurous turns) and the laughs shared over seemingly endless wine, the time will remain to be my highlight in Italy!

Wonderful family experience - Fun evening. Traveling with two teenage granddaughters and they enjoyed it. Was supposed to include a short walking tour of the Jewish ghetto which didn't happen. Group was not too large and everyone seemed to have fun and particularly enjoyed eating our pasta. Booked at last minute after our pizza making tour was cancelled, and glad we did. Great family activity
