About this tour
Roll up your sleeves for a three-hour pasta masterclass in Rome where you'll craft fettuccine and ravioli from scratch, then finish with tiramisu. Working alongside a professional chef, you'll learn the hand-stretching and folding techniques that define Roman cooking, then sit down with other students to eat what you've made. This is proper skill-building, not a tourist performance—you'll leave knowing how to make these dishes at home.
Highlights
- Shape fresh pasta dough by hand without machines
- Fill and seal ravioli using traditional methods
- Build tiramisu layers with proper technique
- Eat your own cooking with fellow participants
- Learn regional Italian culinary traditions from a working chef
- All ingredients and equipment provided
What to expect
You'll start by mixing and kneading pasta dough, understanding how texture and hydration matter. The chef demonstrates fettuccine rolling and cutting, then guides you through ravioli filling—the trickiest bit, requiring neat edges and proper sealing. After that comes tiramisu assembly: layering sponge fingers, mascarpone cream, and cocoa powder with precision. Once everything's ready, you gather around a table to taste your effort. Expect flour on your clothes and a real sense of having done something, not watched someone do it.
Good to know
Three hours includes cooking and eating. Bring an apron or wear something you don't mind getting messy. The kitchen is wheelchair accessible. Public transport is nearby if you need it. Kids in prams are welcome, though they won't participate in cooking.
