What’s the first thing that enters your mind when you think of Italy? If you’re anything like the average person, it’s probably pizza. So, while you’re in Rome, ditch the fast food to learn how to make an authentic Italian pizza from scratch.
In our class, you’ll bake the dough, stretch it, sauce it, bake it, slice it, and — the best part of all — taste it.
The experience is about as hands-on as it gets, but you’ll be guided by our skilled pizzaiolo (pizza chef) every step of the way. He’ll teach you his time-honored secrets about the art of making the perfect pizza, along with the history of Italy’s most iconic creation.
Making your own pizza is a rewarding process, especially when that first bite melts in your mouth. And where better to do it than the heart of Rome itself?

Was a fun way to learn how to make pasta and tiramisu from scratch. The tiramisu we made was the best we had on our trip to Italy!

This was such a fun experience. We got to learn not only how to make the different dishes, but fact and knowledge about past and Italy you wouldn't normally learn from visiting. Igor was very knowledgeable and very passionate about cooking. They actually contacted us a few days before our class and offered for us to move classes because the first class we booked was full and they said it would be a better experience if we moved. We were able to change and ended up having a private class. It was very intimate. Igor was able to modify the menus based on our dietary needs and preferences which was amazing! Ive taken other Airbnb cooking classes where you are with a group of people and it seems very cookie cutter. Those classes were amazing and worked for us at the time but this was in a small, intimate restaurant and it just made the experience that much better. I can not recommend this experience enough!

This was an enjoyable class, but we had some issues in that the chef didn’t speak English as expected. There was eventually a translator but this was after some confusion at the beginning. The pasta was great and the chef was very knowledgeable. If I would have a suggested improvement it would be that there would be more instruction during the cooking process.

Amazing experience! We were taught to make a variety of pasta and how they are paired with different sauces. Also made fresh gelato for dessert. It was the perfect lunch.
