Cristina

Cristina 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."

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.

Our family had a fabulous time making three kinds of pasta and then eating our delicious creations. Christina was warm, welcoming and a fantastic teacher. We are all experienced cooks but learned so much. It was an experience we will never forget!

Cristina's class was a very fun and unique experience in Rome! We took the Sweet Delights of Rome class and had a great time learning how to make classic Roman desserts. This was a very unique part of our trip - very different from the usual pasta or pizza cooking classes you see. Everything we made was so delicious and Cristina was a lovely and kind host. She was very welcoming and friendly and has a beautiful villa! We would highly recommend this experience!
