Italy is full of traditions, and moving from one home to another everyone has their own, which are intertwined with those of the territory. Antipasto and Dessert under the banner of the elegance of yesteryear, a fresh sauce that takes us southward and an iconic pasta format of Roman culture, recipes that are delicate and at the same time full of flavor, all to be replicated at home. In the company of a good glass of wine we will taste the dishes made during the course.

What an amazing experience! My wife and I took a cooking lesson with Ofelia and had a wonderful experience. From the food, to the wine, and the company, it was an amazing afternoon that was one of the highlights of our honeymoon. I was a little nervous to try making pasta for the first time, but Ofelia made it fun and easy. We also really enjoyed spending time with a native Italian and with somebody who has lived in Rome for a long time. It was a wonderful cultural experience that we will never forget! Definitely would recommend this class to anyone in Rome!

Ofelia and Leonardo welcomed us with such warmth and kindness, creating a fun and welcoming atmosphere throughout. The food we prepared together was delicious! It truly felt like spending an afternoon with dear friends, creating cherished memories that will last a lifetime! We wholeheartedly recommend attending a class with Ofelia!

Ofelia is a very talented chef and teacher. She is so sweet and really cooks with love! My daughters and I loved our class with her and we had so much fun making pasta from scratch. The risotto she showed us how to make was the best we have ever tasted. She made our trip to Rome even more memorable.

"Hello everyone! Mine is a cuisine that starts above all from traditional family recipes. I was born in Calabria, but mine is a family branched out in cultural and consequently also culinary history. A great-grandmother of a Jewish family married to a great-grandfather an aviator American, another who abandoned dancing with the consuls for a marriage with an intellectual of peasant origins, all united with the Calabrian mountain tradition.From the branch of Jewish origins I took the great love for sweet and sour, for fermented recipes and spicy scents, from the noble branch some recipes that I discovered to be relatives of sometimes Sicilian and sometimes Neapolitan cuisine (from the Kingdom of the two Sicilies:), some that I have never happened to find in other houses. I moved to Rome almost twenty years ago to study and I stayed there, here I also assimilated some recipe books from my partner who is a Roman from Trastevere, making my own super recipes rlatives of the Roman tradition, such as the first classics or the Maritozzi, which I often personalize with fillings that bring me and my guests back to Calabria!
