Enjoy the easy-going happy lifestyle, which the Ghetto is famous for. Head to the restaurant and meet the Chef ready for you to reveal secrets and recipes. This is a hands-on class, but if you’d just like to be a spectator you can relax, watching the chef working, with a glass of wine. You’ll learn to make home-made pasta from scratch, cleaning and preparing seasonal vegetables to fry and tasting dessert that all roman grandmas used to cook for local kids. Season menu is the key for a good cooking class. Learning history and legend around the Jewish district and its unique food style. Let’s put our hands in the dough.

I highly recommend this cooking class. We had a fabulous experience making pasta and enjoyed every aspect of this activity. Our guide was lovely and acted as translator for our Italian chef. We cooked, we laughed, we made pasta, we laughed some more and ate s wonderful meal that we helped prepare. Love of cooking and food was the common ingredient and the same in any language. This is a must in Rome and a recipe for success!!!

I made a last minute booking and so glad I booked this class. It was super fun. Who knew pasta was super easy to make?! Loved the instruction, the interpreter, the food, the wine, getting into the kitchen and conversing with Fredericka and the other guests. Would do it again.
