I look forward to welcoming you for an experience dedicated to artichokes, the king of Roman cuisine. Anyone who comes on vacation to Rome cannot miss out on tasting this delicacy. Together we will discover the secrets of this extraordinary vegetable: when and where to buy it, how to choose the best artichokes, and how to clean and cook them to perfection. We will prepare them in the three most traditional ways—alla Romana, alla Giudia, and fried—and we will also taste a pasta dish to appreciate their versatility and flavor. You will be surprised by the deliciousness of this vegetarian dish, and we will discover little tricks to cook it to perfection. It will be a unique journey through Roman flavors and traditions, making your experience truly enjoyable.

To był wspaniały wieczór. Poznałem uroczy ludzi: Marka i Michalinę. I oczywiście zapoznałem się ze sztuką przygotowania karczochów na cztery sposoby. Dziś w domu przetestowałem jeden, Marko jest mistrzem :)

Cesarino Marco e sua moglie, nell’ambito del progetto “Più biologico regionale in Europa”, hanno realizzato uno showcooking di tre ore nel centro commerciale davvero impeccabile. Ingredienti tutti freschi e biologici, combinati con cura: il risultato è stato semplicemente delizioso. Colpiscono la professionalità e, soprattutto, la loro umanità: sono persone di grande cuore, capaci di coinvolgere il pubblico con competenza, simpatia e passione. I feedback sono stati entusiasti non solo per i piatti, ma per l’intera performance. Consigliatissimi.

This was an amazing your hosted by the best people we met on our journey through europe. They showed as all the treasures of food Rome had to offer. Marco had print outs off all the food we tried so we could read later and understand the origins. The food was incredible had a meat platter to try all the different produce from the area, so filling. Then had dessert from a wonderful team that just kept feeding us which was fantastic. I recommend Marco highly is was so much fun.
