What to expect
You'll arrive at a working kitchen near the Vatican where a chef meets you in person—no pre-recorded videos or assembly-line groups. The first hour covers pasta: mixing flour and eggs, kneading, rolling, cutting fettuccine by hand. Next, you'll build a tomato sauce while that rests. Then gelato: tempering, churning, tasting the result. Appetisers appear as you work. Once everything's ready, you sit down together and eat it all—your pasta, your sauce, your gelato—with wine or beer for adults, soft drinks for everyone else. The chef shares tips for doing this at home without special kit.
Good to know
Wear comfortable clothes you don't mind getting flour on. The kitchen is accessible to prams and strollers if needed. Public transport is nearby if you're not driving. Service animals are welcome. Expect roughly two hours of hands-on time and thirty minutes of eating and chat.
