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 great experience for two families with a total of 11 people. We didn’t know what to expect going into a personal home, but we loved every minute! We learned how to make some fresh pasta and enjoyed gobbling up our hard work! Highly recommend!

Rosella and Giuseppe made our cooking experience a 5 star event. We had so much fun learning to make raviolis, fettuccine and tiramisu. They delighted our group with sparkling wine and appetizers in addition to our cooking experience. This was a highlight of our 18 day trip through Italy and Croatia. Forever grateful, Stephanie and Bryan

Great hosts! Fresh food and such a fun and hands on experience! It was easy to get to via the provided transportation and would do again. Beautiful view and would do again!

We booked a last minute cooking demonstration as our cruise ship was going to be visiting Messina and we did not have any plans. We were welcomed into Rossella’s home by herself and her family. We chatted, ate her great cooking, and enjoyed a day in the life of a local. So glad we got to experience this!
