Your experience
The Trapezoidal Pier in Palermo is a fascinating blend of past and present. This area, reminiscent of Barcelona's Barceloneta, preserves the Castello a Mare, a symbol of the past, while embracing modernity. It is the arrival point for cruisers, tourists, and boaters arriving on our shores. During the tour, we will explore this vibrant area, purchasing fresh local ingredients. Then, we will return to my home to prepare together eggplant rolls stuffed with fresh pasta and sauce, a typical and delicious dish that embodies the authenticity of Palermo's culinary tradition.

- Overall we had a great time and Rosa Maria has a beautiful home. Our class was short so it felt a bit rushed.
- We enjoyed our time, and appreciated being welcomed into Rosa’s home, and enjoyed meeting her family. Overall we had a positive experience, however it felt a bit rushed and lacked patient guidance.
- L’esperienza con Rosa Maria è stata a dir poco unica! Siamo stati accolti fin da subito da un caloroso sorriso, che ci ha accompagnati durante tutta la mattinata, partendo dalla visita del mercato, proseguendo con la preparazione dei piatti e concludendo con il pranzo. Dopo la visita iniziale, ci siamo dilettati a preparare un pranzo palermitano, guidati in modo impeccabile e delicato da Rosa Maria, che ci ha svelato tantissimi dettagli trucchi utili, in modo da poter ricreare i piatti anche a casa nostra. È stata una mattinata indimenticabile, non è mancato niente: dal buon cibo, al clima familiare, all’acqua Fiuggi, che ci è stata gentilmente offerta, dato l’agosto abbastanza caldo. Consigliamo davvero a tutti di mettere le mani in pasta insieme a Rosa Maria e di lasciarsi guidare alla scoperta dei sapori di questa magnifica terra!
- We loved it so much! We felt welcome in her house. She was very sweet and patient and the pasta we learned to make was delicious!
- We LOVED this cooking class with Rosa - she was very friendly, welcoming & knowledgeable. She is generous with her time, patient with questions & good company. We shared lunch with her family swapping stories which was lovely - it was also my birthday so I got candles & a happy birthday song to top it all off! Would definitely recommend to others. Grazie Mille Rosa!

Where
Rosa Maria
Cesarina from 2018Location: Palermo Languages: Italian, English, French In Sicily, especially in Palermo, there is one true regional cuisine — based on four essential ingredients: pasta, olive oil, vegetables, and oily fish. These are the foundations of my cooking. My dishes reflect this tradition, but I love to add a touch of imagination and a desire to experiment, always staying true to the spirit of our ancient recipes. I use ingredients that are deeply connected to the land and sea of Sicily. I welcome my guests here in Palermo, but through my food, I also invite them to discover the aromas and flavors of Favignana, Ustica, and San Vito Lo Capo.
