Shared Experience
Your experience
Starting in the quaint town of Nicolosi, we will climb to Adrano, on the slopes of Mount Etna, with the volcano as the backdrop to our journey. I will welcome you to my property: an acre of Etna cherry and apple trees. After participating in the cherry picking, we will relax with a rich tasting of Sicilian specialties: seasoned bread, scacciata, arancini, caponata, cous cous with vegetables, eggplant and potato meatballs, panelle, salad with tomato and ricotta salata. To finish, blancmange and homemade cherry jam. An unforgettable experience between nature and authentic flavors. Vegan and gluten-free options available.

- Friendly chef, very delicious sicilian food, nice host. Her niece translated from italian to english, so the cooking class also works for non italian speekers. The home made pasta (busiate) was excellent. We had a nice evening!
- My mom, my aunt, and I stayed at Mrs. Giampatrizia’s house in December and immediately felt like part of the family! Giampatrizia is an empathetic and very kind person, always attentive and available. Between laughter, chatter, and valuable advice, we cooked scacciate, fresh pasta, and biancomangiare, and every dish was delicious. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and fun: an authentic experience that makes Sicilian cuisine special and that we will remember with great affection. Absolutely worth trying!
- Giampatrizia is a wonderful teacher. She welcomed my sister and I into her home, and taught us how to cook numerous traditional Sicilian desserts. I would recommend her to novice cooks and seasoned bakers alike. She also provided a translator, who was equally excellent.
- We loved our time spent cooking in Giampatrizia’s home! She was so welcoming and everything was so delicious. To be able to experience something like that far away from home really made me and my sister’s Christmas very special! Thank you so much for the time spent teaching us!
- We had a wonderful experience learning how to make homemade pasta and Pasta Norma. Giampatrizia was wonderful and we learned so much. After we finished cooking, we sat down with her and her family and enjoyed our meal and learning about them and their culture.

Cesarina from 2023Location: Nicolosi (CT) Languages: Italian and EnglishMy kitchen embodies the rich Sicilian tradition passed down through generations, adapted to cater to various dietary needs, including gluten-free cuisine. With no limit on guests, I've hosted gatherings in my garden with abundant food, good music, and carefully curated setups. The Christmas dinners for my banking team were always well-received, with a focus on table arrangements and dish presentation. Beyond Sicilian tradition, I enjoy experimenting with international dishes. My hobbies include crafting jams from my orchard's fruits, making homemade liqueurs, and various preserves."
