It was truly an amazing experience as we had a warm company . One of the best experiences 🙌 ❤️ Thank Mama Maria, Papa Georgia amd Marriam.

- 5 stars, Maria was welcoming and patient to us. We felt at home
- There are experiences you think will be “nice”… and then they become so much more. The one we had with Giorgio and Maria was exactly like that. There were three of us – me, Francesca, and Felicienne. We were greeted with a carefully prepared aperitivo and two people genuinely ready to listen to us. Even before we started cooking, a genuine exchange was created, filled with chatter, smiles, and mutual curiosity. We weren’t customers: we were guests. We were only supposed to make ravioli… but between laughs and technical advice, we found ourselves making tortellini, cappelletti, and even spaghetti alla chitarra. Getting our hands into the dough, literally, guided by their patience and passion, was engaging and authentic. Giorgio and Maria don’t just teach a recipe: they share a piece of their history. The best part? Sitting down together at the table and dining with what we had prepared. At that point, Claudia, their daughter, joined us, and the atmosphere became even more familiar. A spontaneous, sincere bond was created – the kind you don’t expect but that you take away with a smile. It was an experience full of positive emotions, human warmth, and true simplicity. It’s not just a homemade pasta course: it’s a moment of sharing that makes you feel part of something. If you’re thinking about booking this experience, do it. You won’t just go home with the technique for making perfect ravioli, but with an authentic memory… and with the desire to see them again soon. 💛
- 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
Cesarina from 2024Location: Rome (RM) Languages: Italian and EnglishI love preparing first courses with homemade pasta, such as maccheroni alla chitarra, ravioli, and lasagna, along with risottos and dried pasta dishes featuring mushrooms and various vegetables. I have happily experimented with many dishes from Abruzzese cuisine, including ndurciullune, pallotte cacio e ova, and stuffed rabbit. Additionally, whenever I have the chance, I enjoy being inspired by the typical cuisines of Tuscany and Lazio.
