Cooking should always be this interesting and fun!
We were fortunate to be able to spend the better part of a day with Daniela and her assistant Arianna learning about and preparing Italian cuisine. What a fantastic experience.
It began (as noted in other reviews) at a market cafe where we discussed and agreed on a menu. Then it was off to the market to pick up the necessary ingredients. What an experience! We began to realize that this "cooking school" was more than just food prep. It was also about learning the traditions, regional differences and ingredients of Italian cooking.
Once the market was behind us, we drove with Daniela to her beautiful home where we immediately began preparing (and leaning about) what was to become our meal. What impressed us the most was the simplicity of Daniela's approach to preparing the creations. She made it easy to imagine preparing the recipes back home.
Daniela is a great teacher, a wonderful host and someone we hope to meet again on our next trip to Rome.

Relaxed and enjoyable experience
Daniela and her assistant met us at Testaccio food market where we enjoyed shopping for the meat, cheeses, fruit and vegetables for the lunch. We then went to her home nearby where we sat at the kitchen bench and helped prepare the food - chopping and dicing vegetables and learning how to prepare zucchini flowers for stuffing and cooking including taking out the stamen. Daniela's explanations of what she was cooking and her methods were excellent. I am an experienced cook but learnt a lot from the demonstrations. We were given the recipes at the start so we were able to make our own notes for future reference.

Holiday Highlight!
Our day with Daniela and her assistant Olivia was one of the high points in our trip to Rome. From shopping for fresh ingredients at the Testaccio Market to cooking and eating wonderful food, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and the company. Truly memorable, and something we would recommend highly to anyone who is looking for a vacation experience a little out of the ordinary. Something we will definitely repeat if we return to Rome.

What a lovely way to spend a day!
I have returned from Rome a few days ago and one of the highlights of my trip was having a cooking lesson. My husband and I arranged to meet Daniela and Olivia at the Testaccio Market and discussed our food preferences over capuccino before heading into the market to purchase the fresh produce. Heading back to Daniela's beautiful home we watched and helped prepare the meal, and then enjoyed our lunch with some very nice wine. It was a really lovely day - nice to get out of the crush of tourists in the city. What I really liked is that the lesson was private so we got a lot of personal attention! Thank you so much to Daniela and Olivia.

A holiday highlight
My wife and I booked a day with Daniela while on our honeymoon, and had a wonderful time. Our day began by meeting Daniela and her assistant Livia in Testaccio. Daniela bought us coffee at a little cafe and we began by discussing our food likes and dislikes. A rough menu was put together over cappuccinos, and then almost immediately amended as we reached the market and discovered what was freshest and tastiest. After a great time in the market, where Daniela seemed to buy almost everything that we pointed at and admired, we piled into her little car and made the short trip up the hill to her lovely home on the Aventine Hill. There we helped her and Livia prepare a wonderful meal - as Daniela told us, "no-one just sits in my kitchen". So even me, all thumbs when it comes to cooking, was pitched in shelling peas and stitching together stuffed zucchini flowers. The whole time we chatted away and were made to feel like old friends. We left with a list of restaurants we were desperate to visit, and the secret of where to find the best gelato. All of Daniela's recommendations turned out to be spot on. Finally, we were shown to her beautifully set dining table and started to eat the spoils of our day. By the time we had finished, it was the most we could do to wobble back to our hotel and lie down for the rest of the afternoon. Extremely highly recommended.

Treated Like Family
We had the most enjoyable day with Daniela. From visiting the local market, learning to cook typical Italian cuisine then eating the delicious meal. She welcomed us into her home and treated us as if we were her family coming for dinner. I can't wait to go home and try some of recipes that we cooked with her especially the ricotta mousse.
