Professional, English-speaking chef
Friendly mixologist
Fresh ingredients
Step by step instructions to making traditional Italian pasta
Three delicious cocktails
Small group of only 12 foodies max
Cheers with an Aperol Spritz
After meeting your professional chef and exuberant host at a centrally located cooking school, your culinary adventure can begin! Enjoy a festive start to the class by learning how to make a classic Aperol Spritz— Italy’s trendiest cocktail! After your expert mixologist demonstrates the perfect technique to making a refreshing spritz, cheers with your intimate group of fellow foodies as you enjoy your first delightful drink of the evening!
Learn to Make Homemade Pasta
Now that you’re feeling a bit more relaxed after your spritz, it’s time to get to work! Tie on your apron and then follow your friendly chef’s step-by-step guide to making a delicious Roman pasta. Learn the secret technique to kneading the dough, and then use a traditional pasta machine to bring your meal to life!
Depending on the day of your tour, a classic carbonara or amatriciana sauce might be on the menu tonight, though not to worry if you’re a vegetarian— you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a delicious cacio e pepe or another vegetarian alternative, instead!
Sip on a Campari Spritz and Limoncello
After all your hard work in the kitchen, sit back and unwind with a second spritz. However, this time you’re moving on to a Campari Spritz, another classic Italian libation! In comparison to Aperol, a Campari Spritz is a bit more bitter and less sweet— though equally delicious!
After mastering the art of making a Spritz, you still have one last classic Italian beverage to enjoy. Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper Italian meal without a glass of Limoncello, a delightful lemon liqueur that’s perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth!
Buon Appetito!
Finally, join your intimate group of chefs-in-the-making as you sit down to enjoy your culinary masterpiece! Give yourself a pat on the back as you dig into your delicious Roman pasta, which you now know how to make all by yourself. We can only imagine how impressed your friends back home will be when you show off your skills at your next dinner party!
