Eat like a local in Rome in an Italian home with Rome Local Friend! For a unique eating experience in Rome, join me, like many other guests before, in my house, at my table.
Do you want to eat like a local in Rome? With the many restaurants in Rome and their tourist menus, there are no guarantees with the one that you may pick. But if you are food lover, or looking for a unique experience in Rome, and want to enjoy a delicious Italian meal, come to my place!
At my place, not only will you get to see how a typical Italian family lives, you will get the chance to have a hands-on home made Italian cooking experience, eat quality Italian food, as well as understand the genuine Italian culture better — a great way to add to your Rome experience!
The Italian meal would consist of four delicious courses, including wine, water, coffee and liqueurs. All courses are freshly made, from quality produce (not ready made dishes):
The vegetables used are seasonal, some are home grown on my little terrace or from a local farmer
The meat is bought directly from a butcher in the countryside.
Only good quality wine is served (either DOCG – label guaranteeing the quality and origin of a wine or ITG – typical geographical indication)
The water I serve is special, it is naturally lightly sparkling. I visit a spring in the south of Rome every month to bottle it at the source, especially for my guests
The olive oil is bought directly from the oil mill once a year, fresh, less processed with a taste different to those you find at your supermarket.
The range of cheese varies from soft fresh, to mild and seasoned ones. Depending on the time of year (mozzarella, stracchino, robiola, primo sale, caciocavallo, parmiggiano, grana padano)
Italian salami is from a local shop based on the season (parma prosciutto, speck, salami, mortadella)
Traditional liqueurs like Limoncello, and ones made with herb infusions to help digest better the meal.
If you want a different eating experience in Rome, be sure to come to my place, I guarantee that you will have an authentic homemade Italian meal, and a local experience in Rome!
I have 4 places available every time. I also offer the chance to pick you up and drop you off at the meeting point outside Battistini Station – Line A for an extra of 10€ to be paid on the spot.

Truly amazing from start to finish. First Titziano met us at the train station to take us to his home where he had set up beautiful table setting. The appetizer was delicious along with sparkling water where he offered everything freshly made and as much as we wanted- fruit, sliced meat, bread topped with tomato and basil. We watched him make the pesto for the past part of the meal and as he did this we engaged in conversation where he answered questions and talked about his country. Very obvious he is passionate not only about cooking and pleasing his guests but also very proud of his home town. We enjoyed the DELICIOUS pasta with unlimited wine. To top off this amazing meal he offered us home made strawberry Italian dessert. We ended with the opportunity to enjoy Italian coffee and liquers. Then he graciously drove us back to the train station and at no time did we feel rushed- he made us feel like pampered gusts yet he treated us like friends. I will highly recommend him to friends traveling to Italy and hope sometime to actually travel there again and meet up with Titziano. What a gracious host! (vedi pagina intera)

Awesome! We had an absolutely amazing time with our host Tiziano. The experience was worth it. It was interesting to hear the stories behind the food and where everything comes from. Be sure to come with an empty stomach- you will leave full! We especially loved the experience of being able to have a real Roman meal, in a quiet Roman neighborhood. Tiziano also shared some of the secrets for making our trip to Rome more successful. Highly recommend !! (vedi pagina intera)
