- I truly don't know if it could have been a better experience. We started out making 2 fypes of pasta. The instructions were simple to understand and complete. The Mom & Son exchanges were so fun! The food we were served was all from their garden. They gave us enough food to last for at least 2 additional meals. The hospitality was top notch. If we ever come to Marsalas again, we will be doing this experience again. We loved the time we spent with them
- We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Gianfraco and Mama Maria who made us feel so welcome in their home and made the evening entertaining and fun. Their passion for food and produce shone throughout the evening. The location, decor and family history was authentic and added to the evening. Their generosity was overwhelming and their passion was evident in the food they presented to us, definitely dont eat before your class. You wont be disappointed and we recommend you try for yourself. Thank you Gianfranco, Maria and Billy.
- What a great experience!! 🫶 Gianfranco and his mother are so lovely People! 🙏😍 They love their traditions and their farm. Everything is perfectly good chosen, for the experience. From the food, to the decoration and the cooking. Gianfranco produces all by himself and he is driven by his passion for his farming. I really recommend this cooking experience. And remember to be hungry when you get there. There will be a lot of delicious stuff to taste.
- I was at Gianfranco's for a cooking course and dinner. It was amazing. Gianfranco and his parents were so kind and you really noticed that they love what they do. The food and the wines were amazing, all grown, produced and by Gianfranco and family. Such a beautiful place. I would recommend 10/10
- WOW! What a fabulous experience! This was the highlight of our trip to Sicily! Gianfranco was amazing; providing us with a fantastic overview tour of Marsala! Then driving us up to his farm and sharing his passion of wine and food! He and his mother (with occasional sightings of his father;) invited us into their winery to enjoy a meal and taste the beautiful regional wines. We helped prepare the gnocchilini; learning the technique and the joy of preparing food in a group. The lunch was amazing with many regional taste sensations; there was no need for supper! Thank you to Gianfranco and his mother for sharing their beautiful world with us. Highly recommend; you will not regret it!
