The second Italian cooking program I attended in September was Convivio Rome. While it’s not a vegetarian program, I contacted the school ahead of time and they assured me that I would have something vegetarian to cook while the other students cooked meat. For €999, the program included the following:
- 6 nights accommodation in a local cottage
- Daily breakfast in the local café
- 3 cooking sessions (2 hours each) followed by lunch
- 2 dinners, including one with wine tasting
- Guided tour of Rome
- Visits to nearby villages
- Olive oil tour and tasting session
- Transportation to/from train station
- Recipes before each lesson
- Welcome gift (a lovely kitchen towel from a nearby village)
