Kelas Memasak Sicily

My cooking class with Teresa Zimmitti turned out to be a private lesson! Teresa was a wonderful hostess who patiently taught me how to make 3 types of pasta in addition to pumpkin gnocchi, pesto and caponata. Her garden is lovely, a delightful place to cook - and then enjoy the fruit of out labors!

The class was a brilliant experience. Michael was a great teacher and the dishes we made together were delicious. It was well organised and sitting down to eat together at the end of the class was lovely. What a fun thing to do in Palermo and a brilliant way to get an introduction to Sicilian cooking. I would highly recommend to anyone even slightly "foodie" visiting Palermo who is looking for a different and fun experience on their travels.

We had a great time during our cooking class in Catania with Mariella. Mariella welcomed us into her beautiful home graciously with her husband Gino. We enjoyed learning how to cook traditional Sicilian pasta with dessert and enjoyed appetizers and wine with the experience. Such a unique opportunity to be welcomed into a local's home and experience both cooking and sharing a meal together. It was one of our favorite parts of our vacation! I would highly recommend to other travelers!

While visiting the beautiful Sicily island (Italy) this past month of September, my husband and I decided to fulfill the long postponed wish of learning to make the very famous and unique Napolitan Pizza! After searching for the best option, we opted for the highly reputed "Master Class", from Alessandro. The class was given by Alessandro himself, who taught the secrets of the art of cooking a true "Pizza Napolitana". This was a hands-on experience! Each of us made our own dough, following a precise step-by-step preparation, to ensure the unique and delicious texture and quality that the Pizza Napolitana has. It was trully an unique and delightful experience!

A group of seven of us were on a walking tour of SE Sicily. It happened that one of our group was having a birthday on our last day. As a surprise for her we arranged for all of us to attend a cooking class. From the first contact, Teresa was wonderful. She was very responsive and arranged for transportation to her lovely house. We met in her peaceful garden where she had all the necessary cooking ingredients and utensils laid out. After serving us coffee, we got to work. We cooked caponata (her grandmother's recipe ), made cavatelli from scratch, a pistachio pesto, and a beautiful parmigiana. The gran finale was Teresa helping us to make a classic cannoli filled birthday cake. We delighted in the feast served with chilled white wine. Teresa brought out her home made limoncello as we sang happy birthday. It was a memorable birthday celebration and a highlight of our trip. Grazie mille to our fabulous and talented host, Teresa!!

my friends and I came here on our final night in Catania and we are glad we saved the best till last! Had the greatest time and the pizza at the end was delicious. The hosts were extremely welcoming and friendly and really made us feel at home. They went over and beyond to make our experience memorable. I recommend you book this pizza making class when in Catania- you won’t regret it!

Manuela was a wonderful host. She was patient and kind. Manuela taught us to make 4 courses of authentic Sicialian foods. It is apparent she has great experience. The recipes we made were some of the best foods we have had in our life. Request Manuela for your next cooking class. You won’t regret it.

Mariella, nos dio una clase excepcional de cocina siciliana, nos enseñó cómo preparar pasta a la Norma y Tiramisú. Celebramos el cumpleaños de mi hija y fue una ocasión especial. Mariella y Gino nos hicieron sentir en casa desde el momento en que llegamos. La atención al detalle hizo la diferencia. Aprendimos mucho de las costumbres sicilianas y no queríamos que se acabara. Le tenia velas para cantar cumpleaños a mi hija. Sin ninguna una de las mejoras experiencias del viaje. Si tiene la oportunidad tomen la experiencia de cocina con Mariella, será el punto alto de su viaje.

During our trip to Sicily we enjoyed a fantastic afternoon, cooking at Mariella’s lovely home. Mariella and Masumi welcomed us warmly and taught us how to make traditional dishes. After cooking we enjoyed the delicious meal at the table. This experience was without a doubt one of the highlights of our trip.

Perfectly orchestrated day of Sicilian cooking from start to finish so enjoyable!! Food and hosts were perfect we totally enjoyed our Sicilian cooking experience!❤️

Cooking with very fresh ingredients, overlooking the sea (the balcony looks out on the bay) in the home of Manuela, an experienced Italian cooking teacher. Her English is great which helped us. The food is different for each session she teaches, working around our preferences. And our pasta was great! The fried anchovies were so good. And, although the course was supposed to finish by 9:30, we were still happily chatting at 10:15 with the other couple there. Really recommend.

We went to the Sicilian cooking class and we had a great time. First we went at the market and got a lot of explanations about the local food. Then we came back to the restaurant and started cooking. They explained us how to cook different styles of pasta and how to prepare two different types of fish. The cooks have been really nice and the food was amazing. We really enjoyed it and can only recommend it! :)

Our Pizza making class in Taormina was amazing! My husband, 8 years old, and I did the class and had the best time. We were very excited to find out we got to learn how to make pasta as well. We were well-fed! The bonus (that my child loved) was that we got to keep our aprons and received a certificate at the end. My partner and I were excited to receive copies of the recipes in our email so we can continue to make delicious pasta and pizza at home. Maurizio was very knowledgeable and so great with my little one. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff and experience.

We had a great time learning how to cook a fine Italian dinner from scratch. The cooking lab was small and intimate (with air conditioning!!!) and the staff were fabulous. Can't wait to test out or new found cooking skills at home!
