Meet Your Host

Cooking Italy

For over 13 years, we’ve been welcoming travellers to Italy through its most universal language: food. Cooking Italy began in Rome’s Prati neighbourhood with our very first experience, The Roman Food Tour. What started as a single walking tour has grown into one of Italy’s most loved food experience operators, and we’re incredibly proud of that journey. Not just for how much we’ve grown, but for how we’ve stayed true to what matters most: authenticity, quality, and genuine human connection.

This activity was SO fun and definitely worth the money.

We started with a tasting which was so fun to try different pestos, cheeses, etc. She was so knowledgeable and we learned a lot while drinking delicious prosecco. The actual pasta making class was amazing and VERY well organized. No time was wasted. We were hands on, drinking wine, and laughing the whole time. Our instructor was awesome, he was helpful while remaining fun. The food tasted even better knowing that I had made it myself. I did this class as a solo traveler and met some cool people while having a great experience in Rome :) Highly recommend!!!

Delightful Hands-On Cooking and Tasting Experience

I absolutely loved tasting the local products, getting to know about them, drinking prosecco, meeting new people, learning to make pasta and ravioli and tiramisu. We were many people, but it all went smooth. The team was very inclusive, smiling and fun. I'm very happy about this experience.

This workshop was so much fun!

Every second of it. From the very beginning, there was a lovely, convivial atmosphere, and everything was well-organized. We started at the first location with prosecco and wine, paired with a delicious cheese board where you could sample everything. The woman who led the presentation spoke with such passion and enthusiasm that it was not only enjoyable but also genuinely interesting to listen to her. All the wines served were of excellent quality, and they're definitely not stingy. The workshop continued at the second location, and this part was also fantastic. Everyone participated enthusiastically, the explanations were clear, and the whole thing had a relaxed, lighthearted atmosphere with a touch of humor. Fun, educational, and above all, very enjoyable. In short: a fantastic activity and highly recommended during your trip to Rome. You really shouldn't miss this one.

Unforgettable and Fun-Filled Food & Wine Workshop

We have experienced quite a few food workshops in different countries, but there is no doubt that this was the most significant and experiential workshop, the guidance was great. The varied food and abundance of wines, and the tastings were great. The guides were full of humor and patience and everything was done in a simply wonderful atmosphere. They also created connections within the group, and confiscated plenty of wine... It was a five-hour workshop that included two parts, everything was perfect plus plus plus. Thanks to Lizzie for leading at the beginning, later I can no longer remember the name of the other lovely guide.. Lots of wine...
