    This was a very fun evening with my wife. The class was small so that Gianna the chef and Patrezia the owner and mother of the Chef were able to give us Their undivided attention and they were so down to earth and very informative about Traditional Sicilian food. I am a professional chef myself and I wanted to learn more about Sicilian cooking and the food was beyond Amazing. We started out with a assorted Sicilian cheese platter then went on to making eggplant Caponata
    Just fabulous! Then we watched the chef make a Almond and tomato pesto to put over Busiata pasta the sauce was Flawless and perfect.
    Then we assisted with a veal
    Spadini or Braciole so good!
    Then Dessert was a pie that we were shown how to make A sort of ricotta cannoli filling and then it was put into a pie shell and baked in the oven I could not believe how good it tasted the filling Takes on a different texture after baking it.
    To top it all off we learned the process of making Limoncello and even got to take a bottle home with us
    All in all this was An Absolutely fabulous evening where they treated all five of us like we were their Family We recommend this to anyone who is coming to Palermo please go and enjoy their Sicilian hospitality
    Thank you so much for all the great information and fun evening.
    This class made our whole trip.

    This was one of the highlights of our trip to Sicily. We met Patrizia at the market and walked with her as she got all of the ingredients for our lunch. We then proceeded to her apartment where she cleaned, prepared and dined with us. She explained all of her recipes as she went along. Of course wine was consumed during the afternoon. She is a great cook as well as an excellent host. It was fun to be in the home of a local person. Great experience had by the four of us.

    Patrizia was a fantastic host and a great teacher.
    The market tour at the start was sensational, literally. We asked questions all throughout and Patrizia was great at answering them all.
    We were so grateful to spend most of the time in her wonderful home, where she was a great host and made us feel very relaxed.
    We can’t wait to try and recreate what we made when we get home, would thoroughly recommend!

    Patrizia has a clear passion for meeting people and cooking. She graciously welcomed us into her beautiful home. The food, drink, and conversation was superb, enhancing our experience. Our trip to Palermo would not have been the same without it!

    We learned a whole lot we did not know or appreciate about why Sicilian cooking is loved the world over from our kind and cordial host. The greatest joy came when the time came to consume the dishes we had prepared. It was the best meal we had on the island. Nothing but thanks and praise to you Patrizia. (Give our greetings too, to Margot!)

    Exceptional market shopping experience & Sicilian menu planning & cooking with Chef Patrizia. Watching Chef Patrizia interact with the market vendors & learning what to look for was magical. Chef is SO organized, keeping menu ingredients straight in her mind for purchase, communicate with 6 of us & navigate the market in a short time frame. Further, Chef Patrizia’s apartment layout is ideal for a cooking class. I cannot believe all we learned, managed to prepare & consumed in a total of 3 hours after shopping was complete. Chef Patrizia encouragers & offers confidence, making everything possible & look easy. Attending solo, I enjoyed self volunteering for the role as sous chef! I am prepared to return as an assistant anytime! Brava Chef!

    We traveled to Palermo with our family of 6 – grandparents to young adults and we loved this tour! Patrizia is a gracious, warm and welcoming host and made our afternoon exploring the Capo market and cooking an authentic Sicilian feast the highlight of our trip! Our meal was delicious – can’t wait to try our new pasta making skills at home!

    Great atmosphere with Pat and group. Recommend it to everyone. Plenty of wine and great food. We all went with the roll of the night and Pat kept the atmosphere and food going as well. Excellent night!
