Immerse yourself in Sicilian flavors with our cooking class in Catania! Learn to craft fresh pasta, including pistachio-filled ravioli, caserecce, and gnocchetti, paired with traditional sauces like Norma, Trapanese pesto, and Aeolian style. Create your own Sicilian dessert, such as the famous "cannolamisù," a delightful twist on tiramisu made with ricotta. Start the experience with gourmet bruschettas, featuring unique combinations like pear and sun-dried tomato. Savor the dishes you’ve prepared, complemented by fine local wines. Perfect for food lovers eager to master authentic Sicilian recipes and share them at home!
Decided to do this cooking class on a whim. So much fun learned a new skill! Definitely not mastered like Ms Angela! Such a beautiful and wonderful host as well as teacher! So glad we did this!! Raviolis and the Bruschetta were AMAZING!
This was such a wonderful experience, Angela was amazing, she is very charismatic, she gave lots of details , food was amazing , the couple that were with us were nice which makes things easier, I would highly recommend 🖤
The atmosphere was relaxed, fun, and full of love for good food. We laughed, learned new cooking techniques, and created beautiful memories as a couple while discovering the real tastes of Catania. We highly recommend this home cooking class to any couple visiting Sicily. It’s a wonderful, hands-on way to connect with local culture, enjoy fantastic food, and share a unique experience.
Great experience! I loved how she was so patient and was very friendly. Definitely recommend to do this home cooked learning experience. I have uploaded a YouTube video on this experience under "Eldon's Excursions" if you'd like to see more!
We had the most amazing experience at Angela's home, learning how to cook traditional pasta and tiramisu. Even though Angela's son was not there to help translate due to work commitments (our Italian is close to zero), through the wonders of google translate and working together to understand we barely even noticed the language barrier. The food we cooked was amazing, and learning the history behind Sicilian cooking is something we will definitely take home with us and continue to use! Even my Wife, who has been rolling pasta all her life, learned a new way of making pasta to continue to perfect! Angela's apartment was amazing and she was the most generous host. We hope we can come back one day to show off our new found cooking skills along with hopefully our new found Italian language skills!!
This was the most unprofessional and unsanitary experience we have ever had! Upon arrival, we were escorted into a cluttered apartment and asked if we minded that the host had two old dogs. Surprise! The dogs were big and constantly under our feet in the kitchen during prep. They were mangy and coughed and huffed throughout. Our host smoked adding to the discomfort. No sanitizer, hosts’ hair was not covered and bare hands used on pasta. Two very simple dishes that a child could handle. Dessert was a gelatin type pudding already prepared. On the bright side, the cook’s soon was a good translator. We would hv left but our driver had gone. We have requested a refund.
Loved this cooking experience in Anna’s cute Italian/Sicilian home. Definitely ask for Anna and cooking at her home experience. It was such a lovely experience — gave us a great local feel. We learned how to make fish, pasta, pesto, peppers. Highly recommend! We had a great dinner after at her place!
We followed the directions on our ticket and buzzed the apartment. We buzzed for 45 minutes but no one let us in. We are very disappointed as the class was a lot of money and we had been excited. I hope to hear of a refund.
The host canceled, I was very upset because she had no option but to pay double, for two participants.
Anna is an amazing teacher. She makes it all simple with a ‘can do’ attitude. She is also incredibly well educated and can tell you anything about her beloved Sicily
Anna the chef was really nice and homey. The food that we prepared was very tasteful. The workshop is great. I would recommed it to everyone! :)
Anna was an amazing host! We had a fabulous time chatting, cooking, and eating! Anna was very informative and did a great job teaching us how to make homemade pasta. We would highly recommend!
Anna was the perfecthostess and teacher, welcoming us into her home and making the whole evening a memoranle one. She was not only a wonderful cook and teacher but very interesting and great company. We were taught how to make the most delicious fresh pasta, risotto and caponata. And then enjoyed it with wine and good company. Anna went the extra mile and gave us some wonderful recommendations for the next day when we visited Napoli. Thank you Anna for a wonderful evening.
<p>This is highly recommended activity in Catania. Our host Miss Daniela and Mr Francesco gave us a wonderful night that you won't forget!! Homemade dishes are very tasty. We enjoy a lot!!</p>
<p>Bought this as a Christmas present for my whole family while we were in Catania and it was definitely my favorite part of the trip! We cooked with Barbi, Silvia and Antonio. They were so welcoming and friendly. We learned how to cook spinach and feta tortellinis and then we were served a 4 course meal that included wine. After dinner, we had such a great time talking with the family over homemade limoncello and walnut liquor! This experience is perfect for getting to experience Sicilian culture on a first-hand basis. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a true Sicilian experience. Bravo!</p>
