Experience Details

This immersive cooking class offers a rare opportunity to explore history through food. Hosted by Andrew, a food writer and educator whose work has appeared in Gastro Obscura and Eaten, the experience blends hands-on cooking with storytelling, archaeology, and cultural insight. Drawing from historical sources, Andrew recreates authentic Ancient Roman recipes and explains the origins of the spices, ingredients, and techniques used thousands of years ago.
