    Team Building Course: The Pizza in Teglia Challenge The event begins with a spritz aperitif to encourage socializing and create a positive atmosphere. Participants, divided into pairs chosen at random, will compete in preparing high-hydration dough and baking pizza in teglia. The activity stimulates collaboration, creativity, and problem solving, facing any unexpected events together.

    At the end, each team will taste the pizzas and vote for the best one (excluding their own). The winning team will receive a themed gadget as a symbolic prize. A fun and engaging experience to strengthen bonds between colleagues.

    A brilliant experience from start to finish. Max explained every step clearly. The food was excellent, but the friendly atmosphere made the evening even more special. Definitely something I would recommend to anyone visiting Catania.

    This was one of the highlights of our trip to Sicily. Massimiliano is passionate, patient and very generous with his knowledge. We really enjoyed making pasta ourselves and discovering how a few simple ingredients can create something so delicious. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, and we left with new skills and wonderful memories.

    Absolutely wonderful experience! Chef “Max” shared many secret techniques to creating the perfect pasta. It was a lovely day. Wonderful food, authentic, homemade dessert, and plenty of wine.! I highly recommend that you make this stop a priority when in Catania. Thank you, Chef for sharing your day fitting us in at the last minute and sharing your home.❤️

    We had such a wonderful evening with Massimiliano. He was incredibly welcoming and made the whole cooking experience feel relaxed and fun. We learned a lot about pizza dough and the importance of maturation, and of course everything we tasted was delicious. A fantastic experience in Catania that I would happily recommend to anyone who loves Italian food.

    We had an incredible time with Massimiliano! He was friendly, knowledgeable and made everyone feel comfortable, even those of us with very little cooking experience. The food was amazing and the whole evening had such a relaxed, family-style feeling. If you want to experience Sicilian food beyond the restaurants, this is absolutely worth doing.

    Passionate about cooking, I started my journey with desserts, but after attending courses on Roman-style sheet pan pizza and Neapolitan pizza, my passion truly settled in this area. Sheet pan pizza has a great advantage: it allows even non-professionals to achieve excellent results using simple household equipment. No need for mixers or professional tools—thanks to the "no knead" technique, you can make high-quality dough by following a few essential rules. One of the most important aspects is understanding the difference between dough maturation and leavening. These two steps are often confused, but it’s proper maturation that ensures a light, digestible dough with great flavor.
