The Real Deal! (and delicious😋)
What a fabulous, authentic cooking experience! Mamma Corleone’s cooking class is one of the best experiences you will have in Palermo.

Ein wunderbarer Pasta-Kochkurs, der viel zu schnell verging
Der Pastakurs bei Mamma Corleone war wunderbar. Etwas versteckt in einer kleinen Gasse öffnete sich eine Tür zu einer gut ausgestatteten und heimligen Küche. Man fühlte sich sofort wohl.

Real traditional Sicilian food from scratch
We had such a wonderful time with family learning the art—and even a little of the chemistry—of making pasta from scratch. We also learned how to prepare eggplant marinara sauce with breaded cod, followed by a fantastic Sicilian biscotti.

Excellent experience for...
Excellent experience for all ages! Maria is an exceptional Chef and Lorenzo brings it all together with his translation skills and his ability to make everyone feel like family. We learnt so much about authentic Sicilian cooking. The meatballs were to die for! And they even accommodated my daughter’s food allergies. Truly wonderful experience, Highly recommend!

Amazing experience!!
Mamma Corleone is right in Palermo city center. Very cozy and authentic house and Maria Pia and her staff are just lovely and amazing! Learned to make pasta (tagliatelle) from scratch, polpette and a typical sicilian dessert. She was very attentive to technique and detail and the quality of all the ingredients was top notch! We had the best time and a cherished memory from Palermo thanks to Mamma Corleone and her staff! Definitely recommend!!
