Cooking class: learn how to cook Italian recipes
Private Experience
Your experience
- Local cold cuts and cheeses with homemade jams
- Pasta alla Norma (traditional Sicilian pasta dish of sautéed eggplant tossed with tomato sauce and ricotta)
- Sicilian Granita
In the city of Messina it is a must to taste a typical fresh and summer sweet meal, famous all over the world.
We are talking about the Messina granita, which comes in different flavors, (coffee, strawberry, lemon, peach, pistachio, etc.) often served with whipped cream and accompanied by a leavened pastry called brioche con il "tuppo." All this makes for a unique taste experience! If you are my guest and decide to experience this tasting, I am sure you will not regret it.
We will prepare together the typical Messina granita with brioche and I will reveal the original recipe so you can make it at home with your loved ones.

- This was a really lovely and intimate tour - it was just my wife and I in the tour group and we had an excellent experience. We got to participate in cooking a meal from a local market to a family table, which was a unique experience. We really enjoyed this and would totally recommend it for anyone looking for something a little different in this area!
- It was a wonderful evening. The food was delicious and the conversations were wonderful. We treated each other like friends, not like guests. We wish you all the best.
- We had wonderful time with Rosella, her husband Giuseppe, and mom in law Pina. They were very gracious with their home. The ambience was great with music, prosecco, and some home prepared apps. Then we made the noodles from scratch, including ravioli, fettuccini, and spaghetti. Not as difficult as we thought it would be, but Rosella had the right equipment and made it easy for us. We ate together and shared stories. It was a wonderful time, and we will return again.
- Absolutely memorable experience. Our hosts, Rosella and Giuseppe were so warm and welcoming to their home. Raviolis and Almond cookies we learned to make were the best Pam & I ever tasted.
- This class in Sicily was such a great experience! Our host Rosella and her family was amazing. They worked together to host the event. They were super welcoming, fun, and clearly passionate about sharing classic Italian food and traditions. The food we made was delicious, and the whole thing felt very authentic. Overall, I’d totally recommend the class itself because the host made it fantastic.
