• Via Isole delle Molucche, 8 - Teresa warmly invites you (minimum of two guests) to join this comprehensive journey into Sicilian cuisine and culture. The meeting point is at 8:45 AM at the Ortigia market (Burgio Salumeria), conveniently located near the port where cruise ships dock. The activity kicks off with an enjoyable stroll through the market streets to explore local delicacies. This experience includes food tasting, explanations of fresh and preserved foods, basic Sicilian recipes, and shopping for ingredients for the lesson. As a special gift, you’ll receive a selection of family recipes to try at home. The Ortigia market tour lasts one hour, from 8:45 to 9:45 AM.

The cooking class with lunch begins at 10:00 AM at my villa with a garden in the ARENELLA area, just a 15-minute drive away. A car is necessary, but transportation can be provided for an additional €15 per person. You’ll prepare a traditional three-course meal and enjoy the fresh dishes you’ve created. The experience concludes at 1:00 PM.
