Although I did not know English well (like most Italians), I made myself understood and appreciated, as you can see from the reviews and I will tell you more I was also included on Tripadvisor among the Best "World" Gastronomic Experiences and I am the fourth in the world. During my experiences, I was often asked to share the recipes of the dishes I prepared. That’s how the idea was born to include them in my first novel, where family stories, historical anecdotes, and flavors come together in a series of narratives. If you like, you can simply ask me for the link to purchase it and I’ll send it to you. When we meet, I’ll be happy to write a personal dedication, or, if you prefer, I can bring a copy myself, just like I can bring, upon request, a bottle of wine paired with your menu. A souvenir that I hope will stay in your heart, just like the experience we’ll share.

Book Chef Carlo!
Carlo was INCREDIBLE. This was the final night of our trip, and we wanted to be able to experience time together in our AirBnb. I stumbled across this experience, and I am SO glad I did!!! It was the perfect ending to our trip. Carlo made us an amazing 4-course meal that was filling and delicious. He was also so kind and attentive. This was a treat, and well worth the value. I highly recommend. Our favorite thing we did in Rome!

Wonderful meal with Chef Carlo
The dinner Carlo made for us was one of our favorite meals in Rome! We thoroughly enjoyed all four courses and he even modified the tiramisu for my daughter (used milk versus espresso) without us asking, very thoughtful and considerate. We had a limited kitchen at our Airbnb and Carlo made the best of it. Highly recommend!

An authentic Italian meal that can't be beat!
Carlo was an incredible chef! We thoroughly enjoyed our meal! He took care of everything. He came to our AirBnB with everything he needed and made a meal for 7 of us. It was a 4 course authentic Italian meal. It was one of the best meals we had in Italy during the 10 days we were here. We highly recommend Carlo and this experience. He speaks limited English, but a translate app allowed us to converse with him and have a truly memorable night.

Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef cost?
+
Prices start at €45 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 Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 139 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 Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef?
+
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 Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef?
+
Around 49 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef 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 Pizza & Gelato Class with Wine by Cooking Italy, Rome [4in1] Pasta Making_Tiramisù_Wine Tasting_Secret Cellar, Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & 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.
What is included in Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef?
+
Included: Dinner. Not included: Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Homemade Meal at Your Accommodation in Rome by a Chef?
+
