Your experience
  • Colorful ravioli (plating with seasonal vegetable hues)
  • Tagliatelle fresh with tomato, eggplant and parmigiano

Our adventure will begin with a toast and continue with an engaging experience: we will prepare colorful ravioli together, mixing vegetables such as spinach, beets or saffron into the flour to give a fun twist to the dish. Next, we will prepare delicious noodles topped with cherry tomatoes, eggplant and Parmesan cheese, enriched with a freshly made sauce. Finally, I will share with you the secrets of making a tiramisu, which you will prepare with your own hands.

This was the best experience during our entire trip to Italy. Mariella Is the an amazing chef and one of the sweetest nicest people I have ever met. Her limited English did not hinder our experience at all, it actually enhanced it. Mariella Picked us up on time at the provided address. Took us to her lovely home and treated like family. She taught us so many amazing authentic Italian dishes. Played classic Italian music for us and shared some of her homemade wine from a local friend of hers. The pasta we made with her was the absolute best pasta I have ever eaten, and I’m a professional chef by trade. We had so much fun with Mariella. Our experience with her was absolutely the highlight of our trip. Don’t think twice about booking this cooking experience and make sure to request Mariella, she’s the best!!!

Mariella was amazing!! She was very welcoming and patient in demonstrating and explaining each step to us. Such a fun experience that we will always remember!

Mariella was kind and an excellent chef. She shared the history of her family and community through the food she served. We helped make pasta which was a fun experience for us. We are buying a pasta maker as soon as we get home. She offered to take us to her country home which was a 20 minute drive but we were worried about getting back on the ship. I wish we would have taken her up on the offer because it sounded lovely and we would have been back in plenty of time for the cruise departure. Next time!

My cuisine is linked to tradition with a touch of poetic license for some foods, which are too strong for me. Born and raised in Messina, I actually learned the Messina tradition when I grew up, because my parents were originally from Gioiosa Marea and Piraino, provinces of Messina but with several differences in methodology. I try to combine these diversities in a taste that is, I would say, pleasant. I like to know and above all I would like these traditions not to disappear.
