Join a Local for a Market Tour & Home Cooking Class in Catania

Beschreibung

We'll take a walk through the Historical Center, learning about traditional ingredients from the vendors at the fresh market. The dishes we prepare will depend on the season and market offerings, ensuring we use only the freshest products. 

We will then head to my welcoming kitchen overlooking the sea, providing an unforgettable experience. My home is just a few steps from the main squares of the historic center. Together, we'll cook a first or second course and a dessert, all paired with fine Sicilian wine.

The menu will include an appetizer, a first course (or a second course), and a dessert. You are welcome to take notes and photos during preparation, and you'll leave with the recipe for the main dish. The experience will be conducted in English.

Experience the authentic "Catanese" lifestyle.
