Dinner in Rome - Janice and Francesca were wonderful! They provided an excellent meal for my husband and I. We were treated with appetizers, taught how to make delicious gnocchi, and they even prepared dessert! They treated us like family and made us feel so special. I left feeling like we were friends 💜 next time we are in Rome we will definitely pop in again to say hello. Don’t miss out meeting these wonderful humans!

A very memorable experience! - I can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our time with Janice & Francesca. They made us feel like family. We cooked, we drank, we laughed, we shared stories, and we ate. We ate lots of wonderful food. In our pre-trip communications with them, I had shared that our trip was a celebration of my wife and my 35th anniversary. The other wonderful couple there that night had also shared that it was their 20th. The sister’s presented us each with a special dessert and music during the evening. So very special for them to remember. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to get a feel and taste for authentic Italian hospitality, and food, with recipes straight from the old country. I feel as if we’ve added to our family now.

Fabulous Roman cooking evening - We had the most wonderful evening with Janice, Francesca and Pietro! They are the sweetest pair of sisters who taught us how to make delicious gnocchi, taught to them from their grandmother who owned a restaurant in Rome. They were such ingratiating hosts who made us feel like old friends. We loved getting to know them, Pietro, and other guests from around the world. Thank you for a most memorable evening! P.s. they also serve yummy aperitifs and desserts!

Truly authentic Roman Family! Beautiful people - Janice and Francesca are amazing people. Warm, friendly and genuinely caring. This is a truly authentic Italian dinner with a great family. It was my mom and dad’s 50 th anniversary and they went above and beyond to make it special. This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! By the end of the night we became friends and would open our homes to these kind and warm women to come stay with us!

MUST DO DINNER IN ROME - My favorite part was the warmth & enthusiasm Janice & Francesca gave to us. We spent 3 weeks in Italy & dinner with them was a highlight! The food was the best we had in Rome & the ambiance was spectacular. I will recommend this to all that travel to Rome. The driver they recommended was great & we booked him to drive us the the airport. He was also friendly & funny & he gave us a mini tour on our way & back to our hotel.

The most wonderful evening learning and cooking with family - Francesca and Janice were the most amazing hosts! We felt like family when we left! They opened up their home, taught us how to make incredible Italian pizza and filled us with memories forever. Our family includes 3 teens and it is a highlight of their Italy trip. If you are looking for an intimate experience of Italian cooking, dinner, culture and life…this is for you!

A delicious meal with our new friends in Rome! - My friend and I had the delightful experience of enjoying a delicious meal hosted by Janice and Francesca. Their generous spirit had us feeling right at home and we left knowing we had made forever friends! The food was out of this world. We felt spoiled with the amount of attention we received and it is definitely an authentic experience. We highly recommend taking advantage of the private car for transportation - so worth it. Our driver was on time and most excellent. If we had more time in the Eternal City, we would visit with Francesca and Janice (and, let's not forget Pietro!) again. A most marvelous time. Thank you!

Authentic Italian Experience - Francesca & Janis were great hosts and teachers. We had a great time learning to make gnocchi. Even we couldn't ruin the gnocchi and the rest of the courses were even better. Just as good as the food was the interaction with our hosts and their family. We have the recepies and look forward to making the gnocchi again. This experience was one of the highlights of our time in Rome we highly recommend it.

Truly a homemade Dinner experience - What a great experience and wonderful hosts Janice and Francesca were. We were welcomed like family as soon as we arrived and the cooking experience is something to be remembered. Can't wait to get back home and share the recipe with our family. We would highly recommend this experience for anyone looking to make new friends in Italy and learn how to make an Italian home cooked meal.
