This class was one of the highlights of my trip! Alessandro was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging, and I learned so much more than I expected to. The meals were simple Italian staples, but there were a lot of small details and techniques that I’d never thought about and will definitely be incorporating into my Italian cooking. I can’t wait to try out these recipes again and make them for my friends and family. Grazie Alessandro for making us feel like real chefs!

So fun!

Alexandra_A, Apr 2025

Marco was super knowledgeable and friendly! We had a small group and he was attentive to everyone involved, including a 4 year old who couldn’t really participate so he made sure he had some pizza dough and other things to play with. The food was spectacular and we enjoyed ourselves so much, we’ve already been recommending the class to other people we know who are visiting Rome. Thank you again, Marco!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

We’re so happy you had such a fun time with Marco — he always goes the extra mile! It’s great to hear the whole group felt included (even the little one!) and that you’ve been recommending the class. That means a lot to us! Grazie mille, Daniela Crown Tours

A great class

Rebecca_E, Dec 2024

Max is a great chef and instructor. We made two different types of pasta - fettuccini and ravioli which were amazing to both eat and make. We also made tiramisu which was easy and delicious. Everything was so much more than we hoped for! We did this class on Christmas Eve Day. It was the highlight of our trip.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Hi Rebecca, Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! We're so happy to hear that Max made such a positive impact on your cooking experience. It sounds like you had a wonderful time learning to make fettuccini, ravioli, and tiramisu, and we're thrilled that it became the highlight of your trip! We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another delicious experience in the future. Kind regards, Fernando Crown Tours

What's not to love - highly recommend

Clare_J, Oct 2024

Fantastic afternoon cooking with Chef Max. We cooked two types of pasta from scratch and sauces, one with a tomato and garlic and one with fresh pesto. Really enjoyed learning the techniques and understanding more about Italian cooking. Tiramisu for the desert, what's not to love! You then get to eat the food you have created, perfect. Highly recommend - wonderful experience and I will return to do the pizza and gelato class when I return to Rome.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hi Clare! Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful time cooking with Chef Max. Making fresh pasta and sauces, along with tiramisu, is indeed a treat! We can’t wait to welcome you back for the pizza and gelato class—there’s always more to learn and enjoy in Italian cooking. Your recommendation means a lot to us! Kind regards, Fernando Crown Tours

Highlight of our trip!

Aimee_D, Jun 2024

This was really a treat! Our class was fun and having it be a small group made all the difference. There were only 8 of us which was the perfect number. The wine kept flowing and our instructor, Jacob, was so great!! I'd even do it again with a new menu!

Response from Host, Jun 2024
