This experience exceeded our expectations! Gina and La Vecchia Mannara were wonderfully friendly, teaching us about the cheeses of Cinisi and answering all our questions. Our generous tasting of bread, wine, olive oil and of course fresh cheeses took place in a lovely outdoor setting with views of both the sea and mountains. Thank you so much to Gina, we felt like we made a personal connection with her after just a few minutes. Gina, if you are ever in Auburn, please do not hesitate to message us!

Luigina was a very knowledgeable guide during our visit to cheese factory in Cinisi. The the young ladies made our experience in making ricotta, caciocavallo and other cheeses an outing that my family enjoyed immensely. Thank you. Guilfoy family.

A unique experience. We laughed, learned, cooked and, above all, met an authentic Sicilian couple, in love with their land and their cuisine, who passed on the art of good cooking to us. It was a pleasure to share it with Gina and her attentive husband who took care of us and pampered us at every moment. If you are in the area, take the opportunity to dine with authentic products of unparalleled quality. THANK YOU THANK YOU AND THANK YOU.

Words cannot express how wonderful our experience was with Gina. I usually don’t write reviews but I will make an exception in this case. Gina patiently guided us through the entire process, from the preparation of the fresh vegetables for the three sauces to the proportioning and technique for three types of pasta to accompany the dishes. Gina served each dish with Sicilian style and grace, with wine and other accompaniments. Further, she finished our feast with home made Sicilian cookies, Limoncello( the best I have ever had) and freshly picked pomegranates from her garden. Gina was fluent in English and graciously transported us to and from our Hotel in Terrasini. You can’t duplicate that integrity ANYWHERE! We could not have asked for more. If ever in Sicily, do yourself a favor and book your cooking class with Gina; she is the absolute BEST!!

**Wonderful Cooking Class with Gina in Cinisi – An Unforgettable Experience!** My Friend and I had the great pleasure of attending a cooking class with Gina in Cinisi, and it was simply fantastic! Gina is an incredibly warm and friendly host who welcomed us with open arms. From the very beginning, we felt right at home – it was like being in "Mamma's" kitchen. Together, we cooked a typical Sicilian dish: Macaroni alla Norma. Gina patiently explained each step to us and shared many interesting stories about Sicily, its traditions, and life on the island. She was always open to our questions and answered them with warmth and practical advice. We especially appreciated that she also told us about Cinisi and the local history, as we were very curious. In addition to her culinary expertise, Gina was a fun and welcoming personality. There was a lot of laughter, and the atmosphere was relaxed and family-like. After cooking, we all sat down together to enjoy the meal we had prepared – a moment we will never forget. The house was beautiful, clean, and tidy. Everything was perfectly organized, and we felt completely comfortable. It was truly an unforgettable experience, and we highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the authentic side of Sicily. Thank you, Gina, for this wonderful day! We will definitely come back!!

Cesarina from 2024Location: Cinisi (PA)    Languages: Italian and English
My cuisine originates from locally sourced, zero-kilometer raw materials, often grown in the family garden. Based on these products, which also distinguish Sicilian cuisine, I enjoy experimenting or simply offering typical dishes. I could describe it as genuine, simple, sustainable cuisine, which also relies on recipes passed down from my grandmother and is characterized by a good dose of passion for what I love most to do: cooking, precisely.
