About this tour
Learn to cook traditional Italian dishes in a professional kitchen under Chef Federico Alessandri, who trained under Michelin-starred mentors and has cooked for high-profile clients across Rome and beyond. This five-hour session teaches hands-on technique rather than theory, guided by someone who's spent years refining classical Italian cooking in restaurant kitchens and private settings. You'll prepare and eat what you make.

What to expect
You'll arrive at a professional kitchen and work through recipes chosen by Chef Alessandri. Expect to handle ingredients yourself—peeling, chopping, mixing, cooking—rather than watching demonstrations. The chef will guide you through timing, temperature, and technique specific to each dish, correcting your grip or method as needed. This isn't theory; it's practical cooking. You'll finish by sitting down to eat what you've made, tasting the results of your work. The pace suits beginners through to home cooks wanting to refine their skills.
Good to know
Wear comfortable clothes you don't mind getting flour or sauce on. The kitchen is fully equipped, so bring nothing. Prams and strollers are welcome if you're travelling with infants or small children. Arrive a few minutes early.
