We had a great afternoon with Massimo. First, with shopped locally with him for the ingredients. Then he invited us into his home where we prepared three traditional dishes together. It also gave us an opportunity to chat about life in Rome and many other topics unrelated to cooking. It was exactly the experience we were hoping for.

We had a wonderful tour with Massimo. He brought us to many interesting and fun local places where we could sample local cuisine including Roman pizza, various sweets and, of course, the best gelato we ever had! The bonus was that Massimo also is historian who explained the neighbourhoods we visited and their architecture. We are pleased to recommend him to others looking for similar local insight.
