Shared Experience
Your experience
Join me for a cooking class at my home with a stunning sea view, where we will prepare arancine following my dear grandma’s recipe. We will make three variations: meat arancine, with a delicious beef ragù, peas, and tomato; butter arancine, with a creamy heart of béchamel, cooked ham, and mozzarella; pistachio arancine, with almond milk and dark chocolate. After frying them to perfection, we will enjoy them together, accompanied by a good wine and the sea breeze. An authentic experience to discover the secrets of true Sicilian arancine and share flavors and traditions in a unique atmosphere. I can't wait to see you!

- Antonio was very knowledgeable and kind, his instincts are spot on, I would love to learn more from this fabulous chev
- I’ve taken several lessons with Antonio. He’s an amazing chef. He’s fun to work with, inventive and very patient. He takes time to explain. He’s very knowledgeable about Sicilian cuisine and technique.
- We scheduled a class with Antonio to make 2 pasta and tiramisu. We had the best time with him as he patiently helped us create a delicious meal and enjoy it together in his home. He shared information about the local foods and techniques, and even some family recipe tips of his “Granny”. It was such a great experience, we felt like we were cooking with a family friend who also happened to be a chef. This ended up being one of our favorite activities in our 10 day trip through Italy and Spain. Thanks Antonio for spending your afternoon with us!
- I loved my cooking class with Antonio. I learned how to make pasta, pasta sauce, panellas, and a beautiful salad. Thank you Antonio! He is an excellent teacher, and a lovely human being.
- I loved the class. We made good Ford and had nice conversations. I highly recommend taking the Sicilian cooking class from Antonio.

Where
Antonio
Cesarina from 2024Location: Palermo Languages: Italian and EnglishI deeply love my Sicily and everything that its rich culinary culture represents. I am passionate about exploring authentic Sicilian dishes, with the aim of rediscovering and celebrating traditional flavors. Between 2019 and 2020, I conducted a study on the monsù cuisine of Palermo's aristocratic families, an extraordinary experience both from a practical and narrative perspective, allowing me to delve into the history and elegance of this gastronomic tradition. For many years, I worked in Michelin-starred restaurants, where I nurtured my passion for "contemporary cuisine," experimenting with innovative techniques and creative approaches. During this time, I also specialized in international cuisine, with a particular focus on Mediterranean flavors and traditions.
