Hi from Graziella!

"I cook traditional dishes from Catania, my cuisine follows the seasons: vegetables and vegetables always and only in season that I buy at the historic markets" in piscaria "and" a fera o Luni "at zero kilometer. I cook fish" that passes "like this , if it is tuna season, it will be present on my table, if instead the Capone (lambuca) passes it there will be that; so for cuttlefish, squid or sea cicadas ".

Graziella & Andrea were such warm and informative hosts! I had the best time with them. What started as a cooking lesson became a super informative lesson on the history and geography of Sicily. We even FaceTimed my relatives back home in Australia and had a funny conversation. I am very grateful for my time there and would recommend it to anyone.

We felt very welcome at Graziella’s home. We had a great time during our visit. I liked making pasta from flour and water. It’s An traditional way that you can bring back home. It tasted very well. As a bonus we learned a lot about Sicilië and get the best tips for our travel.

Andrea and Graziella were great Hosts. We had a lot of fun, and learned not just about pasta but also about Mount etna.

We had a fantastic evening with Graziella and Andrea learning how to make different Italian pasta dishes from scratch (which were absolutely delicious!) as well as a homemade tiramisu which was the best tiramisu we have ever had! We had such a lovely evening getting to know Graziella and Andrea and learn about so much, all while drinking delicious Italian wine with a view of Mount Etna in the background! They also gave us some fabulous cocktail bar recommendations in Catania which we saw them at later that evening! Beautiful people, beautiful food and beautiful views- I highly recommend booking a cooking class with Graziella and Andrea to add a touch of proper Italian culture to your trip!

Andrea and Graziella and their son were wonderful! Valerius (son) walked us through Catania and pointed out the wonderful sights. Then we enjoyed making and eating homemade ravioli at their home. Andrea spoke to us about Sicily and we had wonderful conversation. This family was very welcoming, polite, and caring. I have a peanut allergy and they were very understanding. We would absolutely recommend them to others! It was a wonderful genuine experience in Catania.
