Meet your chef at the restaurant
Your tour begins at a professional restaurant near Piazza Cavour or Piazza Navona. 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.
