- Host met us right on time near our hotel. Great market tour, stopping to taste a few things and meet some of the vendors. The cooking was a lot of fun. I wish we had planned more time instead of having a set time to get to the airport. Also be aware the host house is not walking distance of the city center, so you need to take that travel time into account. Also be sure to make the sea salt tiramisu! Overall great experience.
- Chinzia is an amazing host who made us feel at home at her beautiful place immediately. Over the course of 3 hours she prepared us the finest of Italian dishes, told us about Sicilian history and culture. She also shared with us valuable secrets about Italian cuisine. But apart from all the fine wines and delicious dishes, she gave us a wonderful time and the sense that we have gained a friend in Sicily.
- A perfect experience for hands on learning with a local who cares about sharing her passion for cooking! It was a delight to spend hours with Cinzia sharing our love for Sicilian food and culture. She went out of her way to make sure I had what I needed to be able to do the same back at home. Grazie!!
- Had a great time with Cinzia Abate and her family. Made us feel like part of the family. The food was delicious as well. Thank you for the great time
