Set in a unique, history-filled corner of vibrant Rome, this intimate class is limited to just 6 people, ensuring you receive personal guidance and a genuine connection. Together, we’ll roll up our sleeves and create fresh, handmade pasta from scratch, all while enjoying a traditional Roman aperitivo paired with exquisite Italian wines that will delight your senses. I’m genuinely excited to welcome you, share stories, laughter, and unforgettable flavors - and create memories that will stay with you long after the last bite.

Wow
Lidia e Andrea is a “must do” in Rome. Their cuisine and their friendliness are different from any other. My family and I made carbonara, amatriciana, and a delicious tiramisu all thanks to Lidia. This is my second time with them and it is simply better every time.

Highly recommend!
Lidia and Federica were absolutely delightful! We were welcomed into Lidia’s home which was a beautiful respite from the busy streets of Rome. The apertivo, pasta, and tiramisu were delicious! Small group, personal, engaging. Highly recommend this experience!

This was the most amazing...
This was the most amazing experience! Lydia is a true gem. Her wonderful knowledge of cooking shines through in everything that she does. The evening went so smoothly and we really enjoyed ourselves. The appertivo, the wine, the two different pastas each with their own homemade sauce and finally the tiramisu for dessert was magnificent!!! 100/10!!

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area cost?
+
Prices start at $79 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rome is not rushed.
Is Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rome can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cooking Class with Lidia YoungGrandma in Jewish area start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rome within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rome?
+
Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*, Pasta Making & Wine Tasting with Dinner in Frascati from Rome, Rome: Pizza & Tiramisu or Gelato Class with Flowing Fine Wine 5*. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rome?
+
April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rome?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
