Perfect end to our stay in Sicily. This was a last minute decision - and we were glad we made the decision. She was perfect. She explained different vegetables and recipes in the Ortigia market and also made us taste a few special ones.

Taking us back to her villa, she was very patient and taught us how to make 3 types of pasta - specific to Syracuse. She also helped us with some great sauce recipes, specially the pepper one - the one we loved the most was the swordfish with the breading - bellissimo. She was a great host and we would love to come back and repeat this. Very recommended

Amazing experience to make authentic Sicilian food with a terrific Sicilian. The meal was delicious and we left stuffed and happy. Our teenagers thoroughly enjoyed learning various cooking techniques and had a blast making their own pasta for the first time.

We enjoyed our tour with a true local from the Syracusa area of Sicily. The tour begins with a very informative tour and discussion of the outdoor market. Samples of local cheeses (we especially loved the ricotta!), mini sandwiches, fruits and vegetables. Our guide purchased foods that were to be used in our cooking class.

After the market tour we traveled by car to our guide’s private home for our cooking lesson and lunch. The guide was kind enough to supply us with the recipes of the dishes we prepared. The lesson was very easy follow. After cooking we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch with a nice table wine.

A few tips for future guests, the guide’s English is good, if you speak Italian it’s a bit easier to follow the instructions. Her home is quaint, so large groups may find the space small. This tour is best enjoyed by 2-4 people maximum.
