- Francesca was a fantastic host with a lovely kitchen and the most friendly personality, going above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience! She is extremely talented and skilled with all things Sicilian cooking, being incredibly patient with us as well learning her artform. We had some of the best tiramisu we've ever had and are excited to have our leftovers for dinner! Cannot recommend Francesca enough!
- After two weeks in Sicily, we can so warmly report that our even of pasta-making class and 4-course dining with Francesca was a top high-light. We were welcomed into her beautiful kitchen in Bagheria with open-arms and deep conversation about food and culture. From the pasta-making to the perfect antipasti, first and second courses, topped off with local fruit and sorbeti, it was a magical evening we won’t forget. We are encouraging all our Canadian friends to book an evening with Francesca to make their Sicilian experience feel bespoke. Grazie, Francesca. 5/5 rating! D&A from Toronto.
- Francesca, thank you for an unforgettable experience. Thank you for opening up your home to us. We had a great time cooking ravioli, fettuccine pasta, and tiramisu. We had many laughs, and great conversation. Thank you Francesca!!
- Favoloso! Molto brava gentile e competente la signora Francesca
- Bellissima esperienza. Ho avuto la possibilita di imparare a fare la pasta fresca e un ottimo tiramisu. Francesca è molto brava e attena a seguirti in tutti i passi della preparazione. Abbiamo poi mangiato insieme quello che ho prepaparto ed era squisito
