The ultimate honeymoon and pasta lovers experience!

Chef Christian was absolutely amazing! So welcoming from the first moment and the class was fantastic! We went through all the details of how to cook pasta, why do or don't do things, and of course the most important note, cream is a crime! I highly recommend coming here and enjoying a fantastic meal!

Thank you so much for this fantastic review — it truly made my morning! I’m delighted to hear that you felt welcomed from the very first moment and that the class was such a great experience for you. Walking together through every detail — the how, the why, and of course the sacred rule that “cream is a crime” — is exactly what makes teaching pasta so much fun. Your enthusiasm in the kitchen made everything even more enjoyable. Sharing tips, techniques, and a few laughs along the way is what turns a simple class into a memorable meal, and I’m thrilled it felt that way for you. If you’re ever craving more Roman cooking magic, the door is always open. Thank you again for the warmth, the energy, and the recommendation.

I did Cristian's cooking class with 20 other friends and we had a great time! We ate and drank very well, but above all we learned a lot about Roman cuisine! Highly recommended experience!!

Grazie di cuore per questa splendida recensione — mi ha strappato un sorriso grande così! È stato un vero piacere accogliere te e il vostro super gruppo di 20 amici: energia, entusiasmo e tanta voglia di divertirsi… la combinazione perfetta per una cooking class memorabile. Sapere che avete mangiato e bevuto benissimo, ma soprattutto che avete imparato davvero qualcosa sulla cucina romana, è la soddisfazione più grande. Vi aspetto quando volete per un nuovo tuffo nei sapori di Roma — magari con un altro piatto da mettere “in curriculum” e un brindisi ancora più rumoroso. Esperienze così… si ripetono volentieri! Un abbraccio e grazie ancora per la fiducia.

Italian Cuisine Experience Tour

On this trip to Italy, it was a pleasure to share the Italian food culture and habits with local Romans in depth. We made three kinds of pasta together by hand, which is really a very creative and novel experience. Thanks to Christian, he has more than 20 years of professional dining experience. The pasta made is delicious, people are warm and hospitable, easy-going and humorous. It is recommended that you take time out when coming to Rome to go to this beautiful and quiet environment and add a special Italian cultural exchange experience to your journey.

Fabulous Pasta Class with Cristian

If you are looking for the perfect cooking class to take with family or friends, this is the one to go to. Cristian is a gem and will make you feel at home from the start. He taught my daughter and I plus a new friend. Joanna, how to make Fettucini, gnocchi and tagliatelle. He was kind, patient and had a great sense of humor. He made us feel so comfortable and we truly enjoyed our class. The food was outstanding and we even were able to take some to go. Run, don’t walk.

I’m truly glad to hear that you felt at home from the very beginning — creating a warm and relaxed atmosphere is something I care deeply about. I’m happy you enjoyed making fettuccine, gnocchi, and tagliatelle, and that the experience felt fun, comfortable, and memorable for all of you. Knowing that the food was outstanding and that you even took some home makes me smile. Your kind words mean a lot. Thank you again for choosing this experience and for recommending it so warmly. Warm regards, Christian Roma Gourmet Experience

Amazing pasta making experience

My daughter and I had the best time during our private cooking class. It was small with one other lovely woman. We learned how to make gnocchi, fettuccini and tagliatelle together. Christian, our instructor, was helpful, patient and funny. I would highly recommend this experience.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your lovely words! It was a real pleasure welcoming you and your daughter into the kitchen. I’m delighted you enjoyed making gnocchi, fettuccine, and tagliatelle together — and even happier that the laughter flowed as easily as the pasta dough. Sharing this experience with curious, joyful guests like you is what makes these classes truly special. I’m grateful for your recommendation and hope our paths cross again for another delicious adventure in Rome.

Birthday with COOKING CLASS

I celebrated my birthday with this wonderful experience organized by chef Cristian and his “Roma Gourmet Experience”, and it was really an unforgettable day! I attended with my girlfriend and all the guests (there were 17 of us), and Cristian took care of every detail with great professionalism and passion. We started by making delicious courgette flowers as an appetizer and then turned to two different types of homemade pasta. Cristian and his assistants were always present, guiding us step by step: they made us literally put “hands in the dough”, teaching us techniques and secrets, but above all making us have a lot of fun. It was an immersive, authentic and perfectly organized experience, ideal for sharing special moments with people you love. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to experience something different from usual. Thanks Cristian and assistants, thanks Roma Gourmet Experience. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED+++++

Grazie di cuore per questa recensione meravigliosa. Festeggiare il tuo compleanno insieme a voi è stato un vero privilegio: un gruppo affiatato, pieno di energia e con una voglia contagiosa di divertirsi e creare qualcosa di speciale. Organizzare un’esperienza per 17 persone richiede attenzione e cura in ogni dettaglio, e sapere che vi siete sentiti seguiti, coinvolti e accolti è per me e per i miei assistenti la soddisfazione più grande. Dai fiori di zucca alle paste fatte a mano, avete portato entusiasmo, curiosità e tante risate: la combinazione perfetta per trasformare una semplice cooking class in un ricordo che rimane. Sono davvero felice che questa giornata sia stata all’altezza di un’occasione così importante. Grazie a te, alla tua ragazza e a tutti gli invitati per aver scelto di celebrare con Roma Gourmet Experience. Vi aspetto sempre a braccia aperte per nuove avventure culinarie.

Do it again!

Great experience, really fun. Christian welcomed us with great professionalism, irony and a lot of patience. He explained all the steps and made available all the cooking tools. The result was really good. We ate very well!

Operator response

Grazie di cuore per le vostre bellissime parole! È stato un piacere accogliervi e condividere insieme un momento così divertente e gustoso. Sono felice che abbiate apprezzato la cura, la professionalità e… un pizzico di ironia, che in cucina non deve mai mancare. Mettere le mani in pasta, scoprire tecniche nuove e poi assaggiare il risultato finale è sempre la parte più gratificante — e sapere che avete mangiato benissimo rende tutto ancora più speciale. Vi aspetto quando vorrete tornare per un’altra esperienza all’insegna del buon cibo e del buon umore.

The class was...

The class was entertaining and enjoyable. The resulting pasta was excellent and Christian made great sauce for the different types of pasta. The instructions were relatively easy to follow though the experience over all was a little unorganized. The location had changed from when I originally booked it and was no longer in the “heart of Rome” rather a 30 minute uber drive out of the city.

Operator response

Thank you very much for joining the class and for sharing your feedback. I’m really glad you enjoyed the pasta, the sauces, and the overall experience. Regarding the location, I completely understand your point. As communicated before the class — and still within the cancellation window — the Trastevere venue was only a temporary space while the new facility was being completed. The new kitchen is much larger, more comfortable, and located inside the beautiful Appia Antica Archaeological Park. Although Rome’s “city center” covers a very wide area, we are still within the downtown zone, just not in the historic Trastevere district. Many guests actually find the new location more relaxing and authentic, and it’s also well connected: buses from Piazza Venezia or the Palatine area reach the entrance in about 20 minutes. I truly appreciate your understanding and your kind words about the class itself. Your feedback helps me continue improving the experience for future guests, and you’re always welcome back for another delicious adventure in Rome.

Loved it!

Christian was absolutely amazing! We had a wonderful experience cooking gnocchi and other pastas with him (along with a couple bottles of delicious red and white wine). Everything we cooked was delicious and we’re so glad to have found this hidden gem! Would recommend to anyone looking for a unique and memorable cooking experience.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful words! It was a true pleasure sharing the joy of Italian cooking with you — from rolling gnocchi to savoring pasta and pairing it all with a good glass of wine. Knowing the experience left you with such special memories means the world to me. You’ll always be welcome back for more culinary adventures… with a few new surprises waiting!
