Shared Experience
Your experience

    During this experience, I will guide you on a pleasant and lively tour of the Mercato del Capo, one of Palermo's most famous open-air markets. Here you will learn how to recognize the best seasonal ingredients and discover typical local products. Afterwards, we will move to my home, located right in the center of town, a stone's throw from the Teatro Massimo, to enjoy a delicious homemade Sicilian aperitivo, accompanied by a good glass of wine.

    We can definitely recommend this cooking class to everyone! We had a really great evening with Alice and Francesco. Alice showed us many different types/shapes of pasta and shared really helpful tips and background information for the making of pasta. We also prepared a delicious tiramisu. As a vegetarian it was no problem at all and Alice checked our likes/dislikes with us in advance. After we made the pasta Alice and Francesco cooked for us as we had really nice starters and wine. The food was delicious. We had a lot of fun, shared great laughter and had a really nice and delicious dinner and local recommendations for our trip in Sicily. If we ever visit Palermo again we will come back for another cooking experience with Alice.

    We had such a fantastic time at this cooking class with Alice and Francesco! From the moment we arrived, they made us feel so welcome in their beautiful home. The whole experience was warm, relaxed, and so much fun – full of laughter, great conversation, and of course incredible food. Alice is a wonderful teacher, making everything easy to follow while still feeling authentic and special. We absolutely loved learning how to make fresh pasta and the delicious almond parfait – such a treat! It was definitely a highlight of our trip to Sicily. It truly felt like spending an evening with friends rather than just a class. We left with amazing memories (and delicious recipes to try at home!). I would highly, highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting – it’s an absolute must!

    This booking was truly one of the most memorable events of our trip. First, we learned so much from Alice as we shopped the vegetable and fish market. But the best part was the way both she and Francesco welcomed us into their home. We prepared the meal, ate, talked family traditions and laughed for more than the scheduled four hours. By the time we were leaving we felt like family. I highly recommend booking with Cesarina Alice!!

    We had an awesome morning with Alice and Francesco making traditional Arancina. They were very helpful and were great company, we learnt a lot about Sicily and the different variations of Arancina. Definitely recommend!

    It was a thoroughly wonderful evening at your place in a private, warm atmosphere. You are fantastic hosts who took the time to cook with us and share your passion. We took away an incredible amount of impressions and inspiration for our next Italian evening. From the bottom of our hearts, a huge thank you – you were simply fantastic!

    I was passionate about cooking and food since I was a child, accomplices grandmother who loved to cook and the whole family who loves to eat well. I therefore decided to pursue a university career in the field of gastronomy. I have faced a multidisciplinary and holistic path that has treated the world of food at 360 o'clock. I love cooking for my family and for others, starting from the choice of recipes and the selection of ingredients. I like to experiment and I'm particularly passionate about pastry and leavened foods. I do research on ancient cookbooks and asking around, especially older ladies, their family recipes. Sicily, like all Italy, has an invaluable gastronomic heritage, whose recipes and preparations vary from house to house, not only between cities and provinces. This gives the palate the opportunity to enjoy the same traditional dishes with different ingredients, techniques and stories.
