Hi from Gilda!

From its fascinating position on the sea to its archaeological monuments, Syracuse is the perfect city to lounge under the sun on its beautiful beaches, experience a classic tragedy in the ancient Greek theater or lose oneself in the narrow streets of Ortigia, the historic center, following the sounds, colors or the tantalizing aroma of Sicilian cuisine...Following the aroma emanating from the traditional Sicilian dishes will bring you to Gilda’s, our Cesarina. Gilda has an innate passion for cooking. She loves to cook and receive friends and relatives, organizing lunches and dinners at home. Gilda makes you feel at home and the atmosphere is cheerful and lively, and her table is always full of flowers and colorful!

I had a wonderful experience cooking with Gilda. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and energetic- a real force of nature cook! We made classic sicilian dishes and her home and gardens are beautiful. Six stars!

What a great day. Gilda picked me up and we went to the market in Siracusa together. A great experience and Gilda knows everybody at the market. Afterwards we went to Gildas house to cook together with the ingredients purchased. We made swordfish caponata, timbale, stuffed squid and ricotta cannoli. Everything was very delicious and I will make all these delicious recipes at home. Thank you for a wonderful day!

Abbiamo vissuto un’esperienza meravigliosa grazie a Gilda, che ci ha accolte nella sua splendida casa con grande cura e attenzione ai dettagli. Ogni angolo era curato con amore, creando un’atmosfera calda e accogliente perfetta per il nostro addio al nubilato. Il corso di cucina è stato divertente e coinvolgente: Gilda ha pensato a tutto, guidandoci con professionalità e passione nella preparazione di piatti deliziosi. Ogni portata è stata un trionfo di sapori e condivisione, trasformando la cena in un momento speciale che ricorderemo a lungo. Grazie di cuore per questa esperienza unica, che consigliamo a chiunque voglia vivere una serata all’insegna del buon cibo, della convivialità e del calore di una vera casa!
