Step into a real Roman kitchen and prepare traditional Italian dishes with your own hands, guided by Ilaria in a warm and welcoming home. Along the way, you’ll discover the small family tricks behind each recipe — the gestures, timing, and instincts that rarely make it into cookbooks.
This is not a cooking class in the traditional sense.
It’s an authentic experience in a real Roman home in Trastevere, where you cook together, share stories, drink wine, and sit around the table just like locals do. No professional kitchen — just a family home, real food, and genuine connection.
If you truly want to understand what Italian cooking feels like, there’s no better place than a family kitchen. Born and raised in Rome, Ilaria comes from three generations of chefs and loves sharing not only recipes, but also the memories, traditions, and everyday rituals behind them.

This experience is designed for everyone : complete beginners, confident home cooks, couples, solo travelers, and families with children. With a small group of no more than 6/8 guests, there’s plenty of time to cook, chat, ask questions, and enjoy each moment at a relaxed and unhurried pace. Together, you’ll make fresh pasta from scratch, shaping three classic types : Fettuccine, Ravioli, and Orecchiette. You’ll then prepare three traditional sauces — cacio e pepe, fresh tomato sauce with basil, and Norma sauce — using seasonal ingredients and time-honored technique. Than you’ll prepare Tiramisu following Ilaria’s family recipe : simple, authentic, and deeply satisfying. Along the way, you’ll enjoy appetizers, wine, and plenty of conversation. Once everything is ready, you’ll sit down together to share the meal — often the most memorable part of the experience, when cooking naturally turns into connectio. You’ll leave with practical cooking skills, recipes that truly work at home, and above all, the memory of time spent in a Roman kitchen where strangers become guests, and guests leave feeling like friends.

This was so fun!!! Illaria is a warm, welcoming and expert cook. It was fun to be in her kitchen, and the location of her home in Trastevere is unique and special. I would do this again with friends, clients and my kids! It’s a great experience

This was the first experience I booked when planning our 25th anniversary trip to Italy, and I am so happy I did. Ilaria and Samuel are gracious hosts. It was nice to spend time in an Italian home, not just a hotel or B&B. This small group experience was cozy and authentic. Ilaria is a wonderful chef and teacher, and the food was amazing. Our adult children are coming over tonight to make pasta. Using Ilaria's family recipes and techniques, it promises to be a wonderful time together as a family. This experience is a little more expensive than some of the others, and worth every penny!

If you are looking for a cooking class in Italy, this is it! We looked at classes in various cities, but most felt commercialized and weren’t exactly the “vibe” we were hoping for. After much research, we landed on this one and It didn’t disappoint. This class was the highlight of our trip! Ilaria and her husband so graciously opened their home to us. We were warmly welcomed along with another couple from Australia and all quickly became friends. The class was so much fun as we learned how to make 3 types of pasta and sauce, which we all devoured at the end! Couldn’t recommend this class enough!

What an absolute delight! Aria made it seem doable and worth the effort to make your own pasta. The dishes were delicious. The whole event was superb. Aria and her family welcomed us into their home (with a most amazing kitchen and garden) and were part of the magic of the evening I love to get a glimpse into the lives of people living where I travel and this was the highest achievement of that goal. Go hungry!!

My husband and I did this cooking class on our honeymoon and it was the most fun/unique experience we did during our time in Rome! Aria is so sweet and so good at what she does! The pasta and tiramisu turned out phenomenal! I couldn’t recommend this experience more!

This was one of the best things I participated in while visiting Italy. Iliana is wonderful. She welcomed us into her home and taught us how to make 3 different pastas, 3 sauces, along with bruschetta, tiramisu, and pastella. It was fun learning to make pasta and share a meal while learning about our lives and culture. It was my birthday and unbeknownst to me she came out with a special tiramisu containing a lit candle and sang happy birthday. It was a memorable evening I won't soon forget. If you have the time book Iliana's class. Her home is lovely and you'll have recipes to share for a lifetime. Plus she provides her contact information in case you have questions. She will be there for you even after the class is over. Highly recommend
