Your experience
- Sicilian Fried
- Cavatelli with sausage ragu’
- Lemon cream
I am Rosa Maria, your Cesarina in Palermo. I will guide you to discover the scents and flavors of Palermo and Sicily. One lesson I learned from my family is never to give up on fried food. In Palermo, fried food is a true delight, and in my menu, I offer it as an appetizer: from "panelle" to "arancinette," vegetables in batter, and eggplant cutlets.
Afterwards, we will dive into making "cavatelli," a typical Sicilian fresh pasta, which I will dress with a delicious sausage and fresh or aged ricotta ragù. To conclude, I will let you savor a lemon cream, a dessert that will cleanse the palate from all the intense flavors we have enjoyed. I look forward to welcoming you for an authentic culinary experience with me in Palermo.

- Amazing cooking class! So much fun, so much food, and Maria is an excellent host! Would recommend this to anyone visiting Palermo!
- We had an excellent time with Rosa Maria and her assistant - they are charming and fun. I cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish it was interesting and informative, and Rosa Maria is an absolute delight. She taught us how to make pasta from scratch in her beautiful apartment, which has a most modern and spacious kitchen. The resulting eggplant dish and tiramisu desert were incredible. I've made Pasta Norma about 100 times before but now I know how to make it properly Grazie Rosa Maria! We look forward to a return visit!
- Great class, making gnocchi with spinach, tagliatelle and cassatine with ricotta and cream. Hands on, well explained, absolute pleasure.
- Excellent experience very cozy and great fresh ingredients. Very family oriented and happy fun time. Highly recommended.
- "It was a pleasure to attend Rosa Maria's pasta class. Very instructive and pleasant stay.

Rosa Maria
Cesarina from 2018Location: Palermo Languages: Italian, English, FrenchIn Sicily, particularly in Palermo, there is one singular regional cuisine: pasta, olive oil, vegetables and oily fish varieties, are the four cardinal staples. The dishes prepared by Rosa Maria reflect this tradition, revised with imagination and the desire to experiment, in keeping with the ancient recipes.
Our Cesarina offers dishes inextricably linked to products and raw materials of the island; Rosa Maria welcomes us in Palermo but invites us to discover the aromas and flavors of Favignana, of Ustica and of San Vito Lo Capo.
