Hands-on cooking class with bruschetta, 3 recipes (starter, pasta and dessert)

Private Experience
Your experience
  • Sicilia traditional starter
  • Homemade pasta with sicilian sauce/pesto
  • Sicilian traditional dessert

In a familiar and comfortable environment I will guide you step by step to the creation of an entire 3-course Sicilian menu from starter to dessert.

You will be greeted by a welcome drink and immediately afterwards you will tie on your apron to start cooking! We will begin by preparing bruschetta and a starter that varies with the season. Then I will reveal the tricks for making the best fresh pasta at home, starting with the dough made of water and flour, which will be topped with a great seasonal sauce that I will teach you how to prepare. We will also make together a traditional dessert according to the season such as water melon jelly or a cassatella with ricotta cheese. At the end of the preparation we will taste the dishes together with some excellent local wine.

My boyfriend and I recently took a cooking class together, and I can honestly say it was one of the most incredible experiences we’ve shared. Neither of us had ever done anything like this before, so we weren’t quite sure what to expect—but from the moment we arrived, it was clear we were in for a special evening. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, and the instructors made the whole process so fun and approachable. We learned so much—especially about pasta! I had no idea how much goes into making it from scratch, and we picked up tips and little bits of culinary knowledge that we’ll definitely carry with us. What really made the night stand out was how much we laughed and connected. It was the perfect mix of hands-on learning, great conversation, and genuinely delicious food. Honestly, the pasta we made tasted better than most restaurants we've been to! If you're looking for something fun and unique, I couldn’t recommend this cooking class enough. It was the kind of evening we’ll be talking about for a long time.

We had the most wonderful morning cooking with Alice and Francesco, their knowledge and hospitality was amazing. Feeling very grateful to be welcomed into their home.

Alice and Francesco were wonderful and were very thorough in teaching us step by step. They were very friendly and accommodating from the second we walked in. I would highly suggest doing this.

Our family had a private lunchtime cooking class with Alice and Francesco and we all agree that it was the highlight of our time in Palermo and something we will not forgot. Alice’s home is a sanctuary from the busy and hot streets of the city. We learnt how to make a delicious 3 course Sicilian meal using seasonal ingredients and cannot wait to try out the recipes again ourselves. I highly recommend Alice and Francesco’s cooking classes!!

"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."
