Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Ragusan focaccia, better known locally as scaccia, is a true masterpiece of rural gastronomic architecture, stuffed in various ways.
  • Arancina is the beating heart of Sicilian cuisine, a concentration of history and flavour enclosed in a golden, crispy breadcrumb coating.
  • The Sicilian cannolo is the 'king' of the island's pastries, a dessert that is not just food, but a story of domination and legends.

A sensory journey through the authentic flavours of the island, immersed in the charm of a historic residence. Experience a day as a true Sicilian in the heart of our villa. It will not be a simple cooking class, but a total immersion in the gastronomic culture that has made Sicily famous throughout the world.

The Experience: Hands in the Dough Under the expert guidance of our hosts, you will discover the secrets of the three pillars of our cuisine: La Scaccia Ragusana, L'Arancina Perfetta and Il Re Cannolo. After the work, we will move on to the pleasure. We will sit down at the table to enjoy what we have prepared, enriching the banquet with a platter of Sicilian delicacies: typical cured meats and selected local cheeses. All accompanied by a selection of fine Sicilian wines.

Cesarina from 2026Location: Marina di Ragusa (RG)    Languages: Italian and English
For me, being in the kitchen is a form of meditation. While the world outside rushes by, time seems to slow down in my kitchen. Cooking helps me find balance, clear my mind, and feel at ease while stirring a sauce or preparing a dish. If I had to serve you the dishes that best represent me, I would choose: Arancina, the symbol of an eternal rivalry between Palermo and Catania, but for me it represents the perfect balance between rice, ragù, and a crispy golden coating. Caponata, the triumph of Sicilian sweet-and-sour flavors, where eggplant becomes the star together with celery, capers, and olives. Pasta alla Norma, a tribute to the perfect simplicity of tomato sauce, fried eggplants, and salted ricotta.
