Best Tour / Cooking Class EVER - This was my favorite and my husband's favorite tour in Palermo
( and we had 5 paid tours during our 6 night stay in Palermo ) w Chef Ugo at his home. Making food together and visiting as friends. He was very prepared, very kind and welcoming. An experience w a Sicilian resident in their home is unique for a tourist and important to our quest to understand the world and its differences.
There were thoughtful, fun & quirky things like the cup w the nose to strain the eggs, stories of his family etc & the tomatoes we used were from his family's garden.
He has 2 B & B rooms that he renovated himself and rents out. I'm sure they are great too
We loved it!

A lovely cooking experience - Our cooking class was excellent from start to finish - we learned how to make delicious fresh fettuccine and ravioli from scratch, and whipped up the BEST tiramisu either of us had ever tasted. It was a wonderful evening with aperitivo, dinner, dessert, local wine and digestivo. Ugo was an excellent chef & instructor, and we felt welcome into his home in the heart of Palermo! We learned some local phrases over dinner too (fatti!), so it was the real Sicilian experience. Grazie mille!

Would definitely recommend!! - We had such a great experience with Gianpiero! We made ravioli, tagliatelle and tiramisu, all the best we’ve ever eaten. He was very friendly and has a great sense of humour. Gianpiero has created a lovely space in his home and provided us with a cheese platter as well as prosecco, white and red wine. We all left very full and would definitely recommend to friends. Thanks so much ☺️

Cooking experience in Palermo - This experience was so fun. The chef was organized and it was really neat to be in his home cooking. He made good choices for what to cook and we all got to participate and there was four of us.. He truly made us feel like family. Served us wine. and water and even made dessert as well. It was a full meal. It was an incredible experience. I recommend everybody to do this in Palermo.

Yummy food and fantastic experience - Gianpiero was fantastic! We made homemade pasta- ravioli and a tagliatelle with Sicilian pesto made from sun dried tomatoes and ricotta, and tiramisu. His instructions were clear and helpful, and he had a great sense of humour with great stories and information about Sicilian cuisine. He also provided some antipasti and amazing Sicilian wine. I now have some food to try out at home. I couldn’t recommend it more.
