Our host, Oriana was fabulous, entertaining and hospitable. She share her home with us and had a very enjoyable lunch- great experience and would do it again. The unpleasant experience we had was with the booking company- their app indicated we should meet at Piazza Neptune at 10:00. No one showed up, so we called Le Cesarine and they said the changed location and sent a “screen shot” of new location, which was useless. Finally we called our host and she provided her address, which we put into Google maps and found the home after a 20 minute walk

We had a lovely authentic experience with Oriana in her beautiful home. We will certainly be practicing our pasta making back in England. The food was delicious, highly recommended. Kind regards Dan & Helen

Very educational and worth a visit if you are interested in learning about pasta and how to make sauce and pasta. Pleasant and very welcoming teacher, with a great home overlooking the city.
