Shared Experience
Your experience

    I will welcome you in a country house among citrus groves and Mediterranean scrubland, overlooking Mount Etna. We will have a Sicilian culinary experience by preparing traditional dishes together: busiate with anchovies ragout Catanese style and ravioli stuffed with grilled eggplant and provola ragusana. For dessert, a fresh almond or cinnamon frost. I offer vegetarian and vegan options. We will taste our specialties after an aperitif with local products, on the panoramic terrace with views from Mount Etna to the sea and Taormina, in an authentic and relaxing atmosphere, accompanied by local wines.

    Without a doubt, this experience was the highlight of our trip! For my milestone birthday, I had wanted to experience an authentic pasta making class in a local home. Our host Lucrezia welcomed us into her home, and she was such a delight! We learned to make cavatelli, baked anelletti and Tortelli filled with pistachio as well as a ricotta tart for dessert. We enjoyed antipasto and bruschetta in the garden before the meal taking in the incredible view of Mount Etna…..stunning location! The pasta dishes and dessert were absolutely delicious, and we were so happy that we were able to experience the meal with Lucrezia and her family. After the class, Lucrezia sent us detailed instructions so that we could duplicate the recipes once we got home. Her husband also took and sent us wonderful pictures of the day. It was such a wonderful day, and the experience far exceeded my expectations. Thank you Lucrezia for making my birthday so special!

    My family had a wonderful time. We had a great time and Lucrezia’s family is lovely. The view of Mount Etna from their terrace is a picture of beauty.

    Incredible experience. Moments of pure conviviality; you feel like part of the family from the very first moment. It feels as if you've known Lucrezia for a very long time; the passion she puts into it is contagious. I learned how to make pasta. Thank you so much.

    We learned a lot about Sicilian cooking, food and traditions. Nevertheless we expected more cooking by ourselves (we only made the pasta & pesto), we had a lovely evening with Lucrezia and her family, with stunning views on the Etna and the strait of Messina

    Cathy - 

    A great authentic sicilian evening of cooking and learning about the local culture. Lucre was very welcoming into her home and a great teacher of pasta making. Would definitely recommend both for the food and the evening experience. Thanks Lucre & Giuseppe!

    Lucrezia

    Cesarina from 2025Location: Acireale (CT)    Languages: Italian and English
    My name is Lucrezia, and cooking is much more than a passion for me — it’s my way of telling stories, preserving traditions, and creating moments of genuine connection. I love welcoming guests with dishes that carry the scent of Sicily, where every recipe holds a memory and every ingredient speaks of my homeland. I carry on my family’s traditions, especially those passed down by my grandmother Santa: from homemade maccheroni with sauce to scacciate, from zeppole to other warm and simple classics of our cuisine. I enjoy taking care of others through food — with attention, love, and that special touch that makes every meal feel like a celebration. In the kitchen, I prepare fresh pasta with passion — such as maccheroni, busiate, and gnocchetti — along with a variety of desserts like tiramisu, Sicilian cannoli, cheesecake, and profiteroles. As for main courses, I often make meat or vegetarian meatballs, involtini, and Sicilian favorites like parmigiana, caponata, and fennel and orange salad. 
     For me, cooking means welcoming, creating, and sharing.
