- Fresh, handmade pasta
We’ll welcome you to a cosy flat near the Vatican. You’ll step into the magical world of traditional pasta: the ingredients, shapes, preparation techniques and places of origin that make each type unique. We’ll start with a welcome glass of wine, just long enough to introduce ourselves, and then we’ll get straight to work. We’ll make a type of pasta of your choice from among orecchiette, fettuccine, tonnarelli, pici, gnocchi, chitarra or ravioli. Please let us know your preferences in advance. We’ll explain the various types of dough, the tools to use, and how to portion and season the pasta. Finally, we’ll taste your creations with a nice glass of wine, all in the spirit of trying new experiences and having lots of fun.

- I can’t say enough wonderful things about our cooking experience with Nicolette and Stefania! From the moment we stepped into their home, we felt like we were being welcomed by old friends. Their warmth, hospitality, and attention to every detail made the entire experience so special. And the spectacular view was just the icing on the cake! We had so much fun learning to make three different types of pasta—orichiete, tagliatelle, and pici . Nicolette and Stefania were incredibly patient and intentional with their instructions, making everything easy to follow and enjoyable. The sauces they prepared were absolutely exceptional, using the simplest ingredients. It was such a wonderful reminder that good food doesn’t need to be complicated. But what made this experience truly memorable went far beyond the cooking. We shared stories about family, culture, traditions, and all the similarities that connect us, despite living worlds apart. There was so much laughter and genuine conversation. My husband, who had never taken a cooking class before, said this was the best part of our entire vacation in Italy! And I couldn’t agree more. We arrived as guests, but I genuinely feel we left as friends. Nicolette and Stefania gave us so much more than a cooking lesson. They gave us a beautiful memory that we’ll carry home with us. If you’re visiting Rome, I cannot recommend this experience enough. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip! ❤️
- We are here in Rome for the 1st time celebrating our 30th Wedding Anniversary. Our kids surprised us with this private cooking class. We absolutely loved this experience. Nicoletta was wonderful and made this experience unforgettable. We are looking forward to trying to cook this delicious food when we get back to the States. Highly recommend this private cooking class.❤️
