Shared Experience
Your experience

    Italy is not only one of the best eating places in the world, but also the country that holds one of the richest cultural and artistic heritages! Why not have fun discovering them in the kitchen? In an experience that whimsically tells the story of art through dishes that evoke it.

    A refined and creative cuisine, but also full of playfulness and irony, all values that Art teaches us!

    Our experience with Ofelia and Leonardo was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived in their home, they made us feel incredibly welcome with their warmth and generosity. Learning how to make authentic carbonara and fresh pasta from scratch was such a special experience, and their passion for Italian cooking made the class both fun and memorable. After cooking together, we shared a wonderful meal and genuinely enjoyed getting to know them both. If you’re visiting Rome, I cannot recommend this experience enough — it was easily the highlight of our trip and one of the most memorable experiences we had in Italy.

    I had a really great cooking class together with Ofelia. We made maritozzi both sweet and savory. Very delicious. It was a great evening and experience with Ofelia and her husband Leonardo. I will visit again for another cooking class next time I visit Rome!

    Ofelia was exceptional. She thoroughly explained the ingredients and each step. She is extremely knowledgeable and her kitchen is a wonderful environment to learn, cook and chat. She had the table set for us to dine on what we had prepared and it was more than enough for a meal. I will highly recommend her for all of the above reasons in addition to her kind and welcoming personality which made the cooking experience that much more memorable.

    Where to start… the food was incredible and on its own would make this the best foodie experience in Rome, but the hospitality, conversation and friendship of Ofelia and Leonardo made this a memory of a lifetime. I have done numerous cooking classes around the world, but nothing comes close, the atmosphere in their stunning apartment is more like a dinner party with close friends. We left with full stomachs and full hearts. Thank you. Till the next time!

    Cesarina from 2022Location: Rome (RM)    Languages: Italian and English
    Mine is a cuisine that starts above all from traditional family recipes. I was born in Calabria, but mine is a family branched out in cultural and consequently also culinary history. A great-grandmother of a Jewish family married to a great-grandfather an aviator American, another who abandoned dancing with the consuls for a marriage with an intellectual of peasant origins, all united with the Calabrian mountain tradition.From the branch of Jewish origins I took the great love for sweet and sour, for fermented recipes and spicy scents, from the noble branch some recipes that I discovered to be relatives of sometimes Sicilian and sometimes Neapolitan cuisine (from the Kingdom of the two Sicilies:), some that I have never happened to find in other houses. I moved to Rome almost twenty years ago to study and I stayed there, here I also assimilated some recipe books from my partner who is a Roman from Trastevere, making my own super recipes rlatives of the Roman tradition, such as the first classics or the Maritozzi, which I often personalize with fillings that bring me and my guests back to Calabria!
