This was a yummy experience - We thoroughly enjoyed this whole experience starting with the visit to the market and ending with dessert in the restaurant. We learned a lot of new things about cooking and now we are ready to tackle homemade gnocchi with a fabulous chunky sauce at home. The veal and the tiramisu were also awesome. Such a fun day!

Lunch with Friends in Civitavecchia - We attended a cooking class offered on Viator as a stop over of a cruise. We met Olga at the port, visited the local market to buy items needed for our class and went to the restaurant to begin. The owner Mateo couldn't have been more accommodating. We began with making Tiramisu, followed by a fresh italian sauce to go with the Gnocchi we made and the Veal. Our class was complete when we sat down with a glass of wine and enjoyed our meal.
This is very easy to do from a cruise. Just take the cruise shuttle into town and a representative will meet you there. Everything is in walking distance.

Delicious Tour. - We enjoyed our cooking experience. Completely hands on and we had fun. We went with friends and had 6 other strangers in our group. It was a great group of 10 & we all took turns preparing our delicious lunch. After shopping at the local fresh market to get all our ingredients, we made potato gnocchi with a wonderful tomato, veggie sauce, veal wrapped with proccuitto & tiramisu. I highly recommend this tour!

When in Italy, cook like an Italian!! - Our Chef was Mateo and our guide was Olga. They were both so professional and friendly. The cooking class was exceptional with tips and pearls that were new to us. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch, wine and tiramisu. Thank you so much! I would highly recommend this tour!

Fun experience - We came from a cruise ship and the port was very busy. We arrived late about 15min to the meeting point, but they were able to wait for us. It was a small group of 4 which made it a more intimate experience. Olga was very nice and knowledgeable of the area. Matteo was very patient with teaching us how to cook while being fun and knowledgeable. Even though we started late, we weren’t rushed at all and still finished on time. This was for my wife’s birthday and it turned out even better than expected.

Educational and great fun! - We had an awesome time! Olga met us (two couples) at the shuttle bus off the cruise and toured us through the town and market as she purchased groceries for our lunch. She answered all our questions as we walked. We arrived at Cicchitti restaurant where Chef Matteo greeted us and we began cooking. Both he and Olga spoke great English and he walked us through making tiramisu, a tomato sauce, veal saltimbocca and gnocchi. He demonstrated and then let us go for it - so much fun. Matteo was experienced and generous with his time and had a wonderful sense of humor - we had so much fun! I highly recommend!

Must do, best experience! Cant rate it enough! - We were on a cruise and had been to rome a few times previously so decided to do a cooking class. It was the best experience we had on the entire trip. Matteo is a superb chef. Really patient and let us get involved and we learnt so much. We were 2 adults and 1 child (13) and our son got so much out of the experience. His confidence grew, even though he managed to crack an egg over the floor, Matteo encouraged a better way to do it, and was so kind. We had veal steaks, made tiramisu and Gnocci and a tomato sauce. BEST FOOD!! We have practiced at home and we cannot encourage you enough to book this experience. Everything was perfect! Thank you Matteo! Holly, Mark and Jensen

Great experience! - What a fun and educational experience! Our guide Olga met us at our hotel and we walked to a large market to buy ingredients and to soak in this vibrant local experience. Olga pointed out interesting details about the city on our way and we even made a brief stop at a beautiful church. Arriving at the restaurant (Otto Zero) where our cooking took place, we met Matteo, chef and owner, who walked us through creating three dishes. The preparation was hands-on and we learned so much and also had a fun time. We then got to eat our delicious creations, accompanied with wine. A top-notch experience, highly recommend!

We cooked and ate great food - Guide meet us at the shuttle stop, after which we walked to the market to purchase ingredients. From there to Otto Zero where the chef owner provided the cooking class. This included gnocchi, saltimbocca, and tiramisu. After making the food, we enjoyed eating it.
The chef provided excellent instruction and the food was delicious.
Our guide, Olga, provided information about the city and its history during the walk.
