Shared Experience
Your experience
The course is held in a beautiful villa surrounded by greenery, centuries-old olive trees, and located just a few kilometers from St. Peter's. In this welcoming and authentic setting, we will prepare handmade tonnarelli pasta using a "chitarra" (a special knife), learning the four most iconic versions of this traditional Roman dish: cacio e pepe, carbonara, gricia, and amatriciana.
During the lesson, each participant will knead, roll out, and cut the pasta, discovering techniques and interesting facts related to these recipes that represent the heart of Roman cuisine.

- Cristina was most welcoming and informational when teaching my husband and I during our cooking class. It ended up just being the 2 of us and couldn’t have been more perfect! She explained everything patiently. Her home and environment were beautiful! We learned so much and had a blast learning three new pasta recipes!! We could not recommend this class with Cristina more. This is an experience we will talk about forever!
- We had a wonderful time learning how to make pasta and gnocchi with Cristina. A great host and an excellent teacher. Thank you for a lovely evening.
- I had a great time! I was lucky to be alone during this course, we had a good discussion despite the language barrier and I learned a lot thanks to these lessons. Thank you again! I’m leaving with a very good memory.

Cristina
Cesarina from 2020Location: Rome (RM) Languages: English and ItalianCristina welcomes her guests in a villa surrounded by greenery with large outdoor spaces and large windows, where you can admire the garden and the centuries-old olive trees. A little corner of paradise not far from the center of the Eternal City. "Since my tender age I have always looked with admiration the love with which my grandmother, of Apulian origins, worked for hours in the kitchen. I still remember her hands and her aprons, often soiled with flour and the aroma of 'good things and genuine' that spread throughout the house and enveloped me in a pleasant feeling of well-being."
