- Giovanni is a wonderful host. Last night, he taught me how to make a traditional pasta dish, as well as a fried cheese and tiramisu. The entire evening was way more than I had hoped for. I would recommend these cooking classes to anyone wanting to momentarily step into the Sicilian way of life. He has a beautiful home that you feel comfortable in and he makes you feel like a special guest. Simone showed up and whipped up an incredible dessert. The food was delicious the wine was good and to top it all off Giovanni played a Baroque song on an instrument I had never seen nor heard of. An evening I will remember for a long time. Thank you for opening your heart and your home to me.

Cesarina from 2026Location: Palermo (PA) Languages: Italian and EnglishI’m Giovanni a musician from Palermo specializing in Baroque music, with a degree in harpsichord from the Palermo Conservatory. I have always combined music with a passion for art and cooking, inherited from my mother and grandmother. I love preparing traditional Palermitan dishes and sharing convivial moments, paying careful attention to the beauty of the table. I welcome guests in two locations: my city home, an elegant apartment near the English Garden, furnished with antique pieces and my harpsichord, perfect for playing and introducing Baroque music; and my countryside house, a villa with a large garden and a terrace overlooking the city, Monte Pellegrino, and the sea — ideal for dinners surrounded by greenery with beautifully set tables.
