Learning pasta-making in Rome is a memorable hands-on experience – and the perfect souvenir to take home. Most classes run 2.5-4 hours with small groups of 10-15 people, letting you get personal attention from expert local chefs. You’ll master fresh pasta from scratch, create traditional sauces, and often tackle classics like tiramisu or gelato.
We especially love the workshops held in centuries-old buildings near the historic center, where cooking sessions typically include wine pairings or coffee tastings. The best classes wrap up with everyone enjoying their creations together – a quintessentially Roman way to connect through food.
