Shared Experience
Your experience
- Welcome drink
- Maccheroni al ferretto or busiate with a Sicilian sauce
- A traditional Sicilian dessert
Enjoy an authentic Sicilian experience filled with aromas, flavours and traditions. I’ll welcome you into my home, a place brimming with warmth and tradition, where you can relax by the fireplace in winter or enjoy the tranquillity of the garden in summer.
Together we’ll discover the secrets of Sicilian cuisine, passed down from generation to generation. After a welcome aperitif, we’ll prepare fresh, homemade pasta, choosing between ‘maccheroni al ferretto’ and ‘busiate’, to be served with some of the most iconic traditional sauces, such as ‘la Norma’, sauce with sardines and wild fennel, ‘mollica’ or, in summer, ‘pesto alla trapanese’. We’ll finish with a traditional Sicilian dessert, such as biancomangiare, gelo di cannella or a ricotta-based speciality.

- We had an unforgettable time with Giampatrizia. We really immersed ourselves in Sicilian culture and cuisine. We learned some techniques and cooked some delicious recipes! We left with full bellies and big smiles. 100% recommended.
- Had a wonderful time with Giampatrizia! There were 4 of us and her kitchen was beautiful and set up well for the class. We had our 11 year old nephew along and they did a great job of including him and giving him fun stuff to do. Rosanna did an excellent job translating and the dishes were very interesting and tasty. Was a great time finishing off the class with eating on her beautiful patio and yard and just chatting for a bit. Would definitely recommend!
- We had a wonderful evening with Giampatricia. The food was delicious and plentiful. It was a lot of fun 🤩. Highly recommended!
- A fabulous afternoon with Giampatrizia learning about Sicilian culture and food. We made some delicious dishes that were easy to prepare and will definitely make them at home. Giampatrizia was very welcoming and provided great tips and feedback so we can perfect the dishes at home. It was a pleasure to spend time with her 😊😊😊
- My friend and I are both foodies and love to explore the local cuisines. During our recent trip to Catania, we booked a cooking class with Giampatrizia and it was amazing. She taught us a whole variety of vegetarian dishes special to the region while explaining the specifics: pasta a la norma, Cipollina, caponata con couscous and so much more. It was one of the highlights of my entire trip.

Cesarina from 2023Location: Pedara (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."
