One-Day Cooking Lessons in Rome:
There is an archaic saying, most likely as ancient as Rome , ‘When in Rome, do as the Romans do’. This is the basis of which we have orchestrated our new cooking lesson. Our ‘Walking Tour’ intertwines the discovery of the magical Italian cuisine juxtaposed with the sightseeing beauty that in this world only Rome has to offer. You will see Rome through the eyes of a local and find fresh ingredients in local neighborhoods of Rome.

The magical cobblestone streets will take you by sites including: Trevi Fountain, Piazza di Pietra, the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, the Jewish ghetto and the fantastic Campo de Fiori.

Fabio Bongianni invites you into his personal home located at the top of the monumental stairway of 138 steps, known as The Spanish Steps. His home, previously owned by a princess, offers a warm environment with breathtaking views. You will tantalize your tastebuds with the fresh ingredients you picked out and prepared with Fabio.

Medieval Mazzano Romano Cooking Lessons:
- A DAY TO REMEMBER - Sights to dream of, food to feed the soul, feelings to live from; moments to last a lifetime.

This special day commences at around 9:30 in the morning. There will be a car waiting at the steps of your hotel and from there the adventure shall begin! Fabio Bongianni will take you to the ancient village of Mazzano Romano. There have been traces of the existence of this village dating back to the Roman era. Although it is only 30 minutes outside of Roma, once inside this medieval village, you will feel like you’ve entered another world.

In Mazzano, Fabio will introduce you to local merchants where you can hand-pick the freshest ingredients of the day. He then will take you back to his lavish garden to pick the fresh herbs. Once inside his featured home the lessons shall begin. Chef Fabio will take his time, slowly and clearly explaining in depth how it is one cooks, but more so, how one cooks well. He will teach you how to make mouth watering Italian pasta and encourage you to be creative with the ingredients of the season. With his fabulous explanations the chef will teach you things that you will be able to bring home with you. From the appetizers, to the first course, the second course and of course to dessert, the chef will guide you through the fabrications of the delightful, traditional Italian cuisine. What’s particular about his teaching is he always offers his own personal advice on each dish and of course he shows you how to serve it in a rather beautiful manner, after all the eyes are the gateway to our stomachs.

Your questions and pictures are always welcome and once you have entered the house, you are provided with your own apron, and thus, along with the chef you are welcome to try everything for yourself. Once you’ve prepared and cooked everything, its time to eat!!! The hum of the soothing river flowing below and the relaxing cool breeze as you sip local Italian wine is sure to make this a day to remember.
