Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
In this culinary experience, we will appreciate the authentic flavors of Puglia. Armed with an apron and rolling pin, we will prepare typical Apulian panzerotti with different fillings, including mozzarella and tomato, meat and a mix of vegetables. We will also make fresh pasta that we will season with seasonal ingredients.
We will savor everything together while sipping a glass of typical local wine. There will be no shortage of appetizers on the house, and Gio will set a themed table to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making you feel at home.

- I gave the pasta course with Gio to my partner as a birthday present and the evening exceeded all our expectations. Giovanna has a lovely little flat where she gave us a very warm welcome. Everything was perfectly and lovingly organised and prepared and even a colleague of Giovanna's was there to help with the translation from Italian to English (thanks again, Angelica!). We made two types of pasta that evening which tasted wonderful and also had a great aperitif and excellent tiramisu, along with lots of helpful tips for making pasta and staying in Rome. Always happy to return!
- My husband and I were on a vacation with friends to Europe and we had scheduled a cooking class with Giovanna. We were blown away by the attention to detail the overwhelming welcome. We received as strangers in her well appointed home, she made you feel like family. Her class was so well organized, and thoughtful that we left feeling like we could cook an Italian meal on our own. From the beginning of the class, she was encouraging and modeled different ways to make our meal. She then offered a unique and diverse beautiful spread of appetizers and complementary wine, pairings and infused water that really satisfied the pallet. The ambience felt like you were walking into a party curated just for you from matching tablecloths and wine goblets to a complementary color scheme. Giovanna made you feel like Family. If you were considering a cooking class, Giovannis’s chop notch and will have you walk away with a lifetime of memories in a few short hours.
- My husband and I were on a trip with friends to Europe. On our trip we wanted to learn a traditional way of Italian cooking as a way to honor our Nonnas. Giovanna went above and beyond to make that experience magical for us. The atmosphere was out of a fairy tale and the recipes were amazing! We left with full stomachs, aching from laughter feeling like we just joined Giovanna’s family. We are truly grateful for all she did for us.
- Wonderful day learning the Puglia dishes with my family. We had so much fun and the hosts were delightful. Class went at a great pace. A highlight of our trip and we look forward to trying to recreate once back at home.
- Wonderful venue and host. The table was beautifully presented and the food was delicious. We had a fantastic evening and loved having the recipes to bring away with us - we've already tried one at home.
