MAIN

Breadcrumbed mackerel or cod

Sicilians love Mackerel fish most of all... it can be roasted, baked, fried, preserved in oil or grilled.

DESSERT

Cannoli is a real institution in Sicilia: This is a perfect balance between the crispy dough, and the softeness of the Ricotta Cream.

All 3 worked together as a team and the multi- cultural experience was just a blast! Evelyn even took pictures and videos with our phones. Lots of fun preparing, cooking and eati...read more

The highlight of our stay in Palermo

This event so completely exceeded my expectations. We started with a fun and informative tour of a local market before arriving at Mama C’s cool little kitchen down a little alley in the middle of old Palermo. There were four of us in the class each with our own stove top. Mama Corleone demonstrated each step of the three course meal we made. She does not speak English so everything is translated by a truly charming young Lorenzo—he and mama have a really winning rapport. After 90 minutes of ma...read more

Amazing Cooking with Amazing People

Thank you so much for such a great time, you were all incredible and we really loved spending time with you. The food we cooked was fabulous, we never found cannoli again that was so light and fresh, you completely changed our idea of how they should taste.

Kitchen and Crew with a Heart of Gold

My adult daughter and I had a charming extended morning at this wonderful cooking school in Palermo. We learned how to make three local dishes: Sardine Meatballs in the most delicious Pomodoro sauce; Pumpkin and Sicilian Red Shrimp pasta and door utterly delicious Sicilian cookies for dessert. Mamma Corleone and her assistant Lea were supported by local translator Lorenzo and what a charming trio they made. They were both informative and entertaining. We very much enjoyed ourselves and our effor...read more

Fabulous and gluten free!

What an amazing experience! I will say if you are having a gluten feee class make sure you confirm directly with the provider as Viator said it was confirmed and I reconfirmed a week prior but when I arrived they did not know. They quickly adjusted and made it a perfect gluten free experience!
