Wonderful, authentic experience! - Our host was amazing! He was such a kind and engaging person who really connected with each of us, spending extra time with our 9 year old daughter to teach her each step of the way. The pasta and tiramisu were phenomenal! Inspired us to order a pasta maker to start making pasta at home. I HIGHLY recommend this experience! So thankful for such a wonderful host!!

Fantastic class for experienced and beginner - This was a fantastic experience. Francesca hosted us in a very well appointed private kitchen and showed great skill in handling our group ranging from very experienced cooks to pure novice (me!). She was kind, thoughtful and responsive to all of our questions while walking us through making an incredible meal. I can’t recommend this enough.

A wonderful afternoon with a chef and his family - This was a great class and experience! I recommend it without reservation. We cooked and then spent a couple hours eating on the chef’s rooftop deck. Not only did we learn new recipes ; our time with the chef and his wife and child was a fun cultural experience!

Wonderful experience - This was one of our favorite things we did in Palermo. Giovanni is a wonderful instructor, not only sharing his cooking techniques but what life in Sicily is all about. He and his wife, along with his daughter, were absolutely delightful. Not sure that we actually got down the strategy for making pasta but not because of his abilities!

When in Palermo you have to try this! - Francesca is the best! Not only did we learn to make pasta ( two kind) sauces and Tiramisu (to die for!) but we had it all as she shared her beautiful home and the lunch we just made with some unbelievable Sicilian vino banco! Yum! Francesca, Gracie!

Fantastic! - Learning to cook new recipes where my ancestors were from by a fun, loving, and knowledgeable cook is a memory I will cherish. By the end of our time together, Pina was family.

So Legit! - Giovanni and Roberta were the most delightful hosts! We came directly from the airport and had a delay which was graciously accommodated. They welcomed us into their home luggage and all! We enjoyed delicious wine and appertivos on
the rooftop patio. Growing up in the family restaurant, Giovanni shared stories while teaching us to make gnocchi, macaroni, and cannoli. For our group it was just the right amount of hands on experience but I’m sure Giovanni was working diligently in the kitchen because our meal was 5 star! This was one of the most authentic experiences we had in Sicily with real people, real fellowship, and real food.
