About this tour
Roll up your sleeves for a three-hour Roman pasta workshop where you'll hand-craft tonnarelli and master the carbonara sauce under a chef's watch. No fancy gadgets needed—just basic kitchen tools and your willingness to get flour under your fingernails. You'll walk away knowing how Romans actually do it, plus you'll eat what you've made.
Highlights
- Hand-shape tonnarelli pasta from flour and eggs
- Learn carbonara sauce technique from a trained chef
- Use only standard kitchen equipment, nothing specialist
- Taste your finished dishes straightaway
- Drinks and water included throughout
What to expect
Arrive ready to work. The chef demonstrates techniques first, then you'll get your hands on dough—mixing, kneading, rolling, and cutting tonnarelli by hand. Expect some mess and a learning curve on getting the pasta shape right. Once you've got the hang of it, you'll move to sauce work, learning how carbonara actually comes together (spoiler: it's simpler than restaurant versions make it seem). Then you cook and eat together.
Good to know
Wear clothes you don't mind getting flour on. The class suits all skill levels—no cooking experience required. Prams are welcome if you're bringing small ones. Public transport reaches the venue easily; private pickup isn't included.
