Great experience, especially for kids

We had a wonderful time cooking with Massimo! My son really enjoyed participating in the cooking. It was fun and interactive- and delicious! We are looking forward to making the recipes at home as well! Thanks so much for a great experience!

Incredible Risotto Workshop with Massimo!

During our recent visit to Rome, we participated in a risotto cooking workshop led by Massimo, and it was an absolute highlight of our trip! Massimo welcomed us into his beautiful classic apartment, located just a stone's throw from the Colosseum. Although the apartment is considered 'new' by Roman standards at 150 years old, it exudes the charm and history of the city. Massimo is not only a master in the kitchen but also an exceptionally friendly and engaging storyteller. As he taught us the art of making risotto, he shared fascinating stories about daily life in Rome and the cultural differences between northern and southern Italy. His stories were so captivating that, inspired by his anecdotes, we decided never to buy Barilla pasta again, just like him! ;-) His perfect command of the English language allowed us to have truly enjoyable and in-depth conversations. The cozy atmosphere was completed with a delightful glass of wine with the meal. And now the most important part: did we learn anything from the workshop? Absolutely! Massimo provided us with countless tips and tricks. Making risotto may not be complicated, but it does require constant attention and care. Thanks to Massimo, we now feel confident in making the perfect risotto at home. We highly recommend Massimo to anyone looking for a unique and educational culinary experience in Rome. Grazie mille, Massimo!

Didn't meet expectations

Francesca was a friendly host, but we found the overall experience disappointing for the price that we paid. She made us a nice risotto to start and a very good tiramisu for dessert, but the main course of chicken marsala and potatoes was not so interesting. The bottle of wine that we were offered was nothing special and probably a rather inexpensive one. There was no fourth course of limoncello or liquor offered as advertised, but we did have a coffee. Visitors should also know that she has a dog which was lying on the couch while we were there. This may be fine for dog lovers, but the dog vomited a bit while we were eating, which was not so appetizing. It's probably best to put the dog in another room while offering this experience. For the price that we paid, we expected a higher level experience.
