Pasta Class in Sicily

Maria our host was amazing. It was easy to find and close to the cruise ship terminal. Only a 5 minute taxi ride. We learned a lot about the history of Sicily and how the food is connected with the culture. Highly recommend this one. Only 1.5 hrs so you have plenty of time for other activities afterwards.

Great Italian cooking class

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our cooking lesson with Rosella. We learned how to make fresh pasta and tiramisu. Everything tasted great. We'll be getting a pasta machine when we get back home.

Warm welcoming and great food

I can't say enough wonderful things about the experience I/we shared with Consuelo, she took us into her home we felt comfortable & we felt at home! She has a lovely place and updated kitchen. Just as we started to prepare dessert for later, she poured a fantastic drink (I'm now looking for the ingredients in the states). So yummy! There was a slight language barrier, but we totally made it work and got the cooking done. I have written down the ingredients to make in the future. The time flew ...read more
