This was an amazing evening. We had a great group, the class was really fun. this pasta-making class in Rome ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and full of great energy. we all had a few drinks, the pasta making process was fun, and the sitting down to eat what we made together was incredibly rewarding

Run to this cooking class ! This was the highlight of our vacation. The atmosphere was fun & welcoming! The food, drinks & fellowship amongst all of the attendees was absolutely refreshing. Jimmy , the instructor was AMAZING…. the entire staff.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for your review, Jennifer! We’re so glad the cooking class was the highlight of your Christmas vacation and that Jimmy and the team made it fun, welcoming, and delicious.
Michael_C, Dec 2025
Jim is a great host, plus he had a pretty killer soundtrack for the event. It was a ton of fun to make pasta with my two teenage girls. This is a perfect family event, but it would be fun for larger adult groups as well. The timing worked out perfectly from apertifs to pasta making to dinner drinks to pasta eating to drinks to dessert. Not only is the evening fun, but you get to take a skill home with you. I can’t wait to make pasta once I get home!
Soundtrack sample:
Blur - “Girls and Boys”
Pulp - “Common People”
Michael Jackson - “Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough”
George Harrison - “Got My Mind Set on You”
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for your review, Michael! We’re thrilled you and your daughters had so much fun with Jim, enjoyed the music, and loved making pasta. Can’t wait for you to put your new skills to use at home!

THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!
This is by far the best excursion I’ve ever been on in my entire life. I’m a frequent traveler, and I’ve have been so many places where I’ve been on excursions but this experience has been the absolute best. The chef‘s attention to detail, and the way that he incorporates the participants is absolutely unreal. You’re going to regret if you don’t take this experience.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you, Kirsten! We’re thrilled you had the best experience and that the chef made it so engaging and memorable. We’re so glad it stood out among all your travels!

The staff were very nice.
Our class involved us mixing egg into a bowl of pre measured flour, adding a pinch of salt and then rolling and cutting it. The two pasta sauces was made by them without us being involved at all. They assured us we would be emailed the recipes but have received no emails. On the day of the event they sent multiple WhatsApp and emails so they have our details.
This listing says "Sip your creations as you master the art of crafting carbonara (vegetarian option available), followed by assembling a traditional tiramisu for dessert.".
We mastered making fettuccine but that's it. Tiramisu was wasn't made but I did see the in the room so that must be for another listing. My partner was really excited for tiramisu but had to go buy it elsewhere. It would have been nice to be involved in making the pasta sauce since this was a cooking class.
We were taught how to made two cocktails but the third was made by them (I don't believe we were told the ratio for the last one but could be wrong).
No tiramisu, no making of carbonara sauce.
Much better 'cooking' classes out there.

Sunny was the BEST and this experience was so so fun. We had the spritzes, we made the pasta, and we didn’t get kicked out when my husband messed up his pasta (probably should have). The food was delicious and the music was so fun! One of my favorite things we did in Rome.
