Farmers' Market Shopping with Sunday Italian Lunch | Private

Sundays in Italy are, of course, sacred. A day deriving from Catholic dedication, many Romans continue to frequent one of the city’s 900 churches on a weekly basis. However, it is what happens next that offers visitors with an unrivalled insight into Italian culture. The Sunday lunch.

Your Farmers’ Market Shopping with Italian Sunday Lunch experience is the perfect opportunity to partake in tradition driven by the tight family bond that the Bel Paese is famed for.

Your 4 and a half hour class commences with a visit to a local market to buy your fresh ingredients. Italian markets truly are a feast for the senses. With the bright array of colors, the rich earthy smells and the fantastic variety of fruits and vegetables on offer, you’ll be spending an exciting Sunday morning in much the same way as many Romans.

After sourcing our ingredients, we’ll head “home” to start the preparation

Your Sunday lunch class takes place in one of our two cooking schools right in the heart of Rome’s historic center, either a stone’s throw from Piazza Navona or a minute’s walk from the Pantheon. You’ll be learning the art of preparing a mouthwatering pasta dish, a juicy main course, a side dish and, of course, a dessert. All according to traditional recipes and all accommodated to your preference.

At the end of the class you will enjoy the delicious food you have prepared, accompanied, of course, by our fine collection of Italian wine! Do you feel a part of the family now?
