Your experience
- Seasonal appetizer
- Homemade fresh pasta with seasonal sauce/pesto
- Seasonal dessert
By joining this food experience you will have the opportunity to really enjoy the Sicilian cuisine at a deeper and more personal level while sitting at my table dining with my family in my home in the heart of Palermo's historic center just a stone's throw away from the Opera House, the Teatro Massimo.
I will welcome you with a sicilian happy-hour, then we will end a dish altogether and I will show you for example how to shape a typical fresh pasta or how to prepare a typical appetizer such as cacio all'argentiera, a Palermo city traditional way of cooking cheese. I will also entertain you by telling you stories and anecdotes of dishes I will propose. We will taste together a three-course menu, all homemade, which will be served with excellent local wine and warm Sicilian hospitality.

- Excellent course, with very welcoming hosts. Everything well explained and hands on, so you really learn. Absolutely recommend.
- Wonderful experience! A convivial evening spent cooking and talking about food, plus I brought home three dishes that will become part of my cooking repertoire. Lovely, lovely time.
- Absolute great time! Fantastic hosts and excellent food in a quaint setting. No better way to spend an evening with family and friends!!
- Wonderful, thank you! 🥰
- We loved our cooking experience with Alice. As vegans, it can be hard to find options and she worked with us to tailor the cuisine and we left with the knowledge to recreate those dishes at home. The class was informative, well paced, and it was incredibly special to have her open up her home to us. Enjoying dinner together afterwards felt like a dinner party with friends. 10/10 would recommend!

Alice
Cesarina from 2022Location: Palermo Languages: English, Italian, Spanish, French"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."
