The cooking class was such an incredible experience—honestly the perfect way to spend an evening. It struck that sweet spot between fun and genuinely educational, without ever feeling too serious or overwhelming.
Esqui & Gio MADE this class, their energy was amazing, and it felt like one of those “core memory” travel moments.
The spritzes? Next level. Every single one was delicious and thoughtfully made—definitely not your average drink situation. And the pasta… unreal. Not only did we get to enjoy it, but we actually learned techniques and tips that made everything feel approachable to recreate later, which made it even more special.
If I had one small suggestion, it would be to offer take-home recipe cards. They were too good not to remember, and it would be such a cute touch to bring a little piece of the experience home.
Overall, such a fun, memorable, and worthwhile activity—would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to add something special to their evening. 🍝✨🍹

Absolutely loved it! Everyone walked in shy and then really opened up by the end with the help of a few cocktails. Benjamin was funny and kept us all entertained! Thank you so much! If in Rome do not miss this experience!

We booked the Tipsy Pasta cookery course on a bit of a whim and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, relaxed and genuinely fun. Jem, the chef, and Gabi, the host, were both excellent, very welcoming, easygoing and good at making everyone feel comfortable straight away. It never felt formal or intimidating, even for complete beginners like us.
The evening itself was great fun. Plenty to drink from the start, lots of laughs, and the food was genuinely very good. I think we got through about five fairly generous cocktails over the course of the evening. Jem explained everything in a really relaxed and approachable way, and we actually came away feeling confident we could make the pasta again at home. The recipes were delicious but also realistic enough to recreate afterwards.
What really made it work was the atmosphere. Everyone was chatting and enjoying themselves within minutes, and it felt very natural rather than forced. We haven’t done things like this before, but we’d absolutely do it again. It’s a really good way to start an evening and felt much more memorable than just going out for dinner. Definitely ask for Jem and Gabi if you can, they made the experience what is was.

This is an activity we scheduled for our last day in Rome and I am so glad we did! This class was the perfect size for everyone to feel included and interact with each other. My friend, who is not a fan of cooking, even had a great time. The instructor was very hands on and personable with lots of knowledge. The transitions during class were well timed and allowed for laughter, drinking and conversation. The recipes were easy to follow and the end result was delicious. I would highly recommend this class for anyone interested or on the fence about doing it!

Beliza was an amazing cooking instructor!! She helped everyone in the class and was patient when things went sideways. The drinks were fun to make and she kept the fun going the whole time!
