Discover typical recipes and dishes
The fascinating food culture is what brings those interested in food back to Italy over and over again. Every Italian cares passionately about what they eat, and those who sell and create the food do so with love and care, using recipes that are handed down through generations. In Rome, a city with 3,000 years of history, your students will discover typical recipes and dishes, and will have the opportunity to make pizza, pasta and learn about chocolate and gelato making, returning home with a greater understanding and passion for Italian cuisine.
