Food Tour: discover the best places where to taste the finest local food & wine
Shared Experience
Your experience
This experience includes a tour with three tastings of local products. We will start with a fresh orange juice (depending on the season) or a glass of wine from a local winery. You will savor the famous Sicilian "rustici," such as arancini, cipolline, and cartocciate, followed by a delicious granita with brioche. All of this will take place in authentic locations, away from the usual tourist paths, in the wonderful setting of the historic center of Catania, where I will show you all its unique features.

- Highly recommend! When we arrived, we were greeted with a breakfast platter of still-warm bread and Sicilian specialties. We then prepared two pasta dishes (pasta dough and sauces) and tiramisu. We were also able to taste Sicilian wine and Prosecco. Maurizio was also very considerate of my fructose intolerance (wine in sauces was substituted and I got my own drink). We did every step of the recipes ourselves and were given lots of tips - the food was fantastic and Maurizio packed up the rest for us to take with us. Even though the cooking class was from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m., we didn't leave until 1:45 as Maurizio took the time for us so that we could cook and eat without any hurry. Great experience!
- I wpuld highly recommend this experience! I It was just me, and aI was spoiled with way too much food. Maurizio was so hospitable and patient. The food we made was abdolutely delicious. Great local experience!
- What a wonderful experience. If you have any thoughts on doing this cooking class....book it immediately. Maurizio had a lovely home and was great with kids. I highly recommend this cooking class for anyone interested
- Maurizio made this a wonderful experience for my son and me. He took the time to show us chopping techniques and other secrets. Especially useful since my sons is just learning to cook. He is funny, passionate about cooking and warm. It was a truly memorable experience!
- This was the best food experience we have had in Sicily. Maurizio welcomed us into his home like family and taught us how to make delicious arancini and tiramisu. The food was great and Maurizio was very fun! We would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Sicily.

Where
Maurizio
Cesarina from 2023Location: Catania Languages: Italian and EnglishMy main expertise lies in pasta dishes, but I don't underestimate the importance of velvety soups and meat and fish entrees. My culinary creations draw inspiration from traditional Sicilian and Calabrian recipes, reinterpreted with a modern twist. I prefer using local ingredients, so-called "zero kilometer" products, to create a unique harmony that enhances the authentic colors, fragrances, and flavors of our region. I invite you to try a pasta dish seasoned with my almond and basil pesto, or an intriguing pistachio and sun-dried tomato pesto. I also offer delightful options made with red tuna and mint; pork or beef fillet enriched with vintage vinegar and white onion cream; potato meatloaf embellished with red tuna and capers. And to sweetly conclude, I propose traditional desserts made with ricotta or pistachio cream, among many other delicacies.
