Great time preparing our chef instructed lunch. Claudiia is s grrat chef and teacher , Bruno her husbsnd was very entertsining. They made us feel very welcome in their home and the food we prepared was truly amazing.
Thank you for the amazing review! We are thrilled that you had such a great time at our chef-instructed cooking class. Claudia and Bruno loved sharing their home, recipes, and laughs with you! We are so glad the authentic local food you prepared together turned out to be truly amazing. Come back for another delicious culinary experience in Zagarolo anytime!
It was our favorite day so far. Got out of the City to rural Zagarolla. Claudia and Angela were wonderful. Learned some secrets (at least to us) for making perfect pasta. The food was wonderful, the farm environment was beautiful and Claudia’s husband serenaded us. Would definitely recommend and we hope we can go back some day.
Claudia and Bruno (nee “Vanessa”) were amazing! This was hands down the best thing we did on our trip. Claudia’s garden of herbs, olives, grapes, strawberries and more than I can count was awesome. To pull herbs from the ground and cook them with her and my daughter was fantastic and fun. You SHOULD book this! If only for Bruno’s Ferrari level driving 😎.
This was our most special experience in Italy. Claudia and Bruno and their family were so welcoming and helpful. Bruno picked us up from the train station and gave us a quick tour of their beautiful midevil village. Claudia's food was exceptional and she showed us so many of her tips and tricks. We were also lucky enough to have Bruno play his keyboard and sing for us while we cooked. After we cooked we got to sit down and enjoy our amazing meal with the whole family washed down with some of their beautiful homemade wine. And Bruno went out of his way to make sure we got back to our train on time. It was a truly magical day we will remember forever. It was lovely to get out of the hustle of Rome for the day, with just a short 30 min train ride. 100% recommend
This tour was AMAZING! We loved everything about it! Claudia and her husband were so welcoming and lovely. The food was incredible.. we made fresh pasta, fresh greens from the garden, meat rolls w fresh herbs and cheese/ prosciutto and fresh artichokes. It was definitely a highlight to our week visiting Rome. Don’t think twice.. book! You won’t regret it!
We thoroughly enjoyed our class with Claudia and Bruno. The dishes we cooked were so delicious and it was a treat to pick the herbs and greens in their garden, among the olive, apple and cherry trees. They were very engaging and generous and we would recommend this class to everyone.
We did a private cooking class for four people, and it was hands down one of the highlight of our trip. The class takes place in the warm, welcoming home with beautiful surroundings. Claudia and Bruno truly make you feel like family. Claudia is a fantastic teacher—patient, knowledgeable, and so passionate about cooking. Every step was hands-on, and we learned so much while creating an amazing meal together. Meanwhile, Bruno kept us all entertained with his quick wit, funny stories, and live piano playing that added such a unique and joyful atmosphere. It felt less like a class and more like an evening with old friends who happen to be incredible hosts. We laughed, we learned, we ate delicious food, and we made some unforgettable memories. I can’t recommend this experience enough. We’d do it again in a heartbeat! 5 stars all the way!
Four of us joined Claudia and Bruno for an amazing experience. First - they are lovely. Second - their joy and enthusiasm is contagious. Third - Claudia knows what she’s doing in the garden and the kitchen and Bruno knows what he’s doing at the keyboard (he even took requests). We started with an espresso, then picked all the greens we needed from the garden, including a bit of foraging. We made two types of pasta, an incredible tomato sauce, fried some greens, made a beef dish and had a lot of fun. Lunch followed with some of their own wine, which was really tremendous. This was a lovely experience. You won’t regret this trip to the countryside.
What an amazing day, lifetime memory for sure! Claudia and Bruno are beautiful people. The setting and the ambience is perfect. Cooking in the Italian countryside away from all the touristy type settings is something we have always wanted to do. It could not have been a more perfect experience! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Absolutely fantastic. Claudia and Bruno were the best hosts. We picked local vegetables and herbs from their garden, drank espresso, cooked 5 dishes, and ate amazing food. This was the highlight of our trip. I can’t recommend it enough.
