Learn to make pasta by hand with a professional chef as your guide. Your 3-hour cooking class teaches you the basics of cooking authentic Italian pasta that you can recreate in your own kitchen. The class takes place in a charming cooking school with state-of-the-art appliances in the heart of Rome's Trastevere neighborhood. There, meet your Italian chef and small group of fellow cooks (max 14 people) over an Italian aperitivo, a plate of cured meats and cheese with a glass of prosecco. Once you've relaxed, begin making fettuccine and ravioli from scratch with a traditional red and white sauce made with seasonal ingredients handpicked by your chef. As the pasta dries, take a break with a gelato-making demonstration. Finally, sit down to enjoy it with plenty of wine and homemade gelato to top it all off.

This was such a fun experience! We had fun learning how to make pasta and sauces…and making the pasta, while time consuming, really is as easy as they show you! We made it at home and it was the same method! Chefs were cute and fun and plenty to drink while you cook and eat!

This is our first time in Italy and my family was interested in learning how to make homemade pasta. The facility was located in a neighborhood that at first appeared a bit on the "rough" side, but once we walked to the location the actual place was clean and spacious. It accommodated a group of 12 people, three families and a couple (newly weds). It turned out that all families were from the US. The chefs were lively, enthusiastic, and really nice. They both explained step by step and provided useful information in a light and joyful way. The whole experience from beginning to end took about 4 hours, but it really did not seem like it. The experience ended with a meal of what we all had cooked. Overall, a fantastic experience, we would highly recommend this experience.

Fernanda and Julia were great! They let our kiddo do some of the cooking and helped each of us understand how to get the best results with our pastas and sauces. They were a joy to learn from, and we love telling others about our class with them.

A great evening in a fantastic setting. The food was excellent and the team of Alessandro and Manu did a great job of moving the evening along while providing great instruction for the preparation. I would highly recommend it!

Great time and would definitely recommend. Few thoughts
- Do the lunch slot over dinner. Restaurants come to life after 8 PM and the dinner class ends at like 7:30 so you are better off doing lunch and being able to enjoy a night out (we did lunch).
- Do this early in your trip. You will leave with a list of recommendations for places to eat/things to do around Rome

Class is interactive and educational. It is not simply take this pour it in here, do this, etc... Obviously you will do that but they will also explain why you do it that way and don't do it this why, how pasta is made, how to tell a good pasta from a bad, etc... So you will leave with a lot of information.

Cooking pasta is hard and I knew that going in I've never wanted to make it at home so this was a good way to experience it without buying the tools etc... You also leave with an understanding of how to make a sauce at home which I will repeat. Even in Rome they only make homemade pasta for special occasions but you always make your sauce at home.

Our family booked this experience through Viator, which is perfect for booking yours for anywhere in Italy. Our host chefs were Fernanda and Asia. They were very warm and welcoming. They were very knowledgeable about the various types of pastas and how they are made and what region of Italy they are from. I won’t go into much detail, but everyone had fun in our group. I highly recommend this class.

We learned so much and had so much fun making pasta, drinking wine and making new friends. Our class size was about 10 people. Our instructors , Alessandro and Stefano, were so kind and supportive. They also made us laugh. We ate dinner after with our homemade fettuccine and ravioli. Absolutely delicious! And gelato for dessert. I highly recommend this experience.

Elisa the cook was funny gorgeous and charming and was so funny and her partner Asia who made the sauces and their banter over the Rome Tuscan rivalry was hysterical.
