: Ci sono esperienze che pensi saranno “carine”… e poi diventano molto di più. Quella vissuta con Giorgio e Maria è stata esattamente così. Siamo arrivate in tre io, Francesca e Felicienne. Ad accoglierci abbiamo trovato un aperitivo preparato con cura e due persone pronte ad ascoltarci davvero. Prima ancora di iniziare a cucinare, si è creato uno scambio genuino, fatto di chiacchiere, sorrisi e curiosità reciproca. Non eravamo clienti: eravamo ospiti. Dovevamo preparare solo i ravioli… e invece, tra una risata e un consiglio tecnico, ci siamo ritrovate a fare anche tortellini, cappelletti e perfino gli spaghetti alla chitarra. Mettere le mani in pasta, letteralmente, guidate dalla loro pazienza e passione, è stato coinvolgente e autentico. Giorgio e Maria non insegnano soltanto una ricetta: condividono un pezzo della loro storia. La parte più bella? Sedersi tutti insieme a tavola e cenare con quello che avevamo preparato. A quel punto ci ha raggiunte anche Claudia, la loro figlia, e l’atmosfera è diventata ancora più familiare. Si è creato un legame spontaneo, sincero, di quelli che non ti aspetti ma che ti porti via con il sorriso. È stata un’esperienza piena di emozioni positive, calore umano e semplicità vera. Non è solo un corso di pasta fatta in casa: è un momento di condivisione che ti fa sentire parte di qualcosa. Se state pensando di prenotare questa esperienza, fatelo. Non tornerete a casa solo con la tecnica per fare i ravioli perfetti, ma con un ricordo autentico… e con la voglia di rivedervi presto. 💛
: A cooking class at Maria and Giorgio’s home in Rome turned out to be the most unforgettable experience of our entire trip. From the moment we stepped into their warm, welcoming kitchen, we felt like part of the family. Maria is truly a five‑star chef and an exceptional teacher—patient, funny, and incredibly skilled. She guided us through every step of making fresh pasta and the most delicious tiramisu we’ve ever tasted. What made the experience even more special was sharing an authentic Italian meal with Maria, Giorgio, and their family. The conversation, the laughter, the homemade dishes—everything felt genuine and full of heart. It wasn’t just a cooking class; it was a glimpse into real Roman life. If you’re visiting Rome and want something meaningful, delicious, and memorable, this is it. An absolute highlight of our trip.
: Maria and her family are wonderful hosts and people. We were instantly comfortable in their home and shared many stories, laughs and cultural exchanges over delicious food and wine. I felt like we had made friends by the time the night was over and would genuinely recommend this experience to anyone. Brava!
: My husband and I had a cooking class with Maria and Giorgio and had a wonderful time! They were both so friendly and welcoming, and it was lovely to spend time in their home and meet some of their family. I was unexpectedly able to practice my French language skills with Giorgio which led to a lot of laughs for us all. The food was absolutely delicious and my husband and I both really enjoyed learning how to make pasta and tiramisu. We’re looking forward to making tiramisu for our families this Christmas. Grazie mille to Maria and Giorgio for an evening that was a highlight of our vacation.
: A wonderful afternoon with Maria. I felt so welcome in her home. Her skill with pasta and tiramisu making and her patience with teaching me made the lesson so very enjoyable. A truly memorable afternoon that I will remember always
