# Rome Cooking Class: Make Pasta, Dine & Drink Wine With Local Chef

**Guidekin's take:** A cooking school in Trastevere that starts like a dinner party, with prosecco, cured meats and cheese, before two pastas and two sauces made by hand and a gelato to finish, with a pizza version on offer. Ingredients, meal, prosecco and wine are included at €50 per person, pickup and tips are not. Adaptable to most diets except coeliacs.

In our comparison: #63 of 197 in Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Learn to make pasta by hand with a professional chef as your guide. Your 3hrs class teaches you the basics of cooking authentic Italian pasta that you can recreate in your own kitchen. The class takes place in a charming cooking school with state-of-the-art appliances in the heart of Rome's Trastevere neighborhood. There, meet your Italian chef and small group of fellow cooks over an Italian aperitivo, a plate of cured meats and cheese with a glass of prosecco. Once you've relaxed, begin making fettuccine and ravioli from scratch with a traditional red and white sauce made with seasonal ingredients handpicked by your chef. As the pasta dries, take a break with a gelato-making demonstration. Finally, sit down to enjoy it with plenty of wine and homemade gelato to top it all off. 

Prefer pizza instead? Select the Pizza Making Class option at time of booking to prepare your own pizza from scratch in this hands-on culinary class with unlimited wine, beer, and a Nutella-topped dessert.
