Cucina Roma · 140+ five-star reviews

The tastiest memory of your trip to Rome

This is not the usual touristy cooking class. Here you really knead the dough, cut the pasta with your own hands and watch the chef cook the carbonara inches away from you. Then you sit down, glass in hand, steps from Piazza Risorgimento. People who join once talk about it for years.

“My friends and I had the BEST time with Chef Davide! We all agree this class was the best thing we did our entire trip to Italy and France. The class was super authentic and fun. The carbonara was delicious and the limoncello and prosecco was an added plus. It was the perfect post-Vatican tour activity, and we would recommend to anyone.”
