- Sfincione
- Palermo-style cazzilli
- Grandma Matilde’s “vastasa” salad
Come and discover all the secrets to making the perfect sfincione.
Together we’ll prepare this delicacy, explaining the recipe for authentic Bagherese sfincione step by step. We’ll also have fun making Cazzilli, delicious potato croquettes, and to ‘cleanse’ the palate we’ll finish with Nonna Matilde’s Vastasa salad. Whilst we wait for the dishes to cook, I’ll be delighted to share anecdotes and interesting facts about the recipes and my family, and to treat you to a few pieces played on my harpsichord, introducing you to the fascinating world of Baroque music, which I’ve been immersed in for years.

Giovanni
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.
