- An absolute highlight of my entire Italy trip! Ofelia and her partner Leonardo are truly some of the most wholesome and generous people I’ve ever met. It was a joy to feel so instantly at home in their lovely apartment and spend an unforgettable night full of cooking, laughter, and of course - endlessly delicious Italian food, truly made one-of-a-kind by Ofelia’s own creative flare. I strongly recommend!!!
- Leaving this review belatedly. Making pasta and tiramisu with Ofelia was the highlight of our trip to Italy in April 2024. She is such a sweet, warm and welcoming host, and a very patient, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable chef! We had so much fun making a delicious and beautiful meal. Thank you Ofelia for your kindness and providing us with this memorable experience! We highly recommend a visit to Rome and a class with Ofelia to all our friends!
- Our family had the most extraordinary Thanksgiving experience in Rome, all thanks to the incredible hospitality and culinary expertise of Chef Ofelia and her wonderful fiancé. From the moment we stepped into their warm and welcoming home, we felt an immediate connection that made us feel like family. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, from the cozy ambiance to the meticulous incorporation of Thanksgiving traditions that truly touched our hearts. The meal was a masterpiece — a blend of traditional homemade dishes, such as turkey, cornbread, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie, alongside freshly made pasta that we had the joy of preparing ourselves. It was a delightful nod to both our American roots and the Italian culture surrounding us. What truly stood out was the care and attention given to dietary preferences, ensuring everyone could indulge without compromise. They even prepared enough food for leftovers, which we lovingly sent home for our son’s roommates as we were in Italy reuniting with him on his semester studying abroad. The experience wasn’t just about the food, though that was unforgettable. It was about the personal touches, the laughter shared, and the deep sense of connection that made this Thanksgiving so special. We left with full hearts, grateful bellies, and memories we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for more than just a meal — if you want an experience that will stay with you long after the plates are cleared — this is it. Truly a Thanksgiving we will never forget!
- I had a great cooking class and a wonderful evening together with Ofelia. We made really delicious Italian food, that I will make again at home, and I really enjoyed the evening with Ofelia and her fiancé.
- This was our first trip to Italy and we wanted to take a cooking class while there. OMG, what a treat meeting Ofelia and taking her class. We felt like family, long overdue for a visit. We were lucky enough to be her only pupils that day. She started us off with a short walk gathering ingredients from the farmer's market, a boutique grocery store and finally a butcher. Once we got back to her home we started right in learning the finer points of making fresh pasta with a mushroom sauce. While we dined she continued preparing and discussing the Tiramisu she was working on. Absolutely a perfect lunch! We were so engrossed visiting with Ofelia about her family and her cooking that time just flew by. If you happen to be in Rome and you are interested in cooking, we highly recommend taking a class from Ofelia! Our only regret is that we took our class on the last day we were there and didn't have the time to take another one. John and Teresa
