Palermo: Sicilian Cooking Class with Market Tour & Meal

Welcome to a truly authentic Sicilian experience in a local home in the heart of Palermo.
This is not just a cooking class, but a full immersion into Palermo's food culture, traditions, and everyday life.
We will meet at the meeting point and walk together to my home, located just a few steps from the famous Mercato del Capo.
I will welcome you with Italian coffee and sicilian biscuits before we begin our hands-on cooking experience.
Together we will prepare fresh handmade pasta and a traditional Sicilian sauce inspired by seasonal ingredients and local recipes. The exact dish may vary depending on availability, but the experience always focuses on authentic Sicilian flavors.
While the dough rests, we will explore Capo Market, one of the most vibrant and traditional markets in Palermo. Here you will experience local life, discover fresh ingredients, and enjoy a tasting of typical Sicilian street food.
After the market visit, we return home to continue cooking together. We will complete our meal and prepare a traditional Sicilian dessert, such as almond granita or chocolate granita.
At the end of the experience, we will sit together and enjoy the meal with local Sicilian wine in a relaxed, friendly, and family-like atmosphere.
Before leaving, each guest will receive the recipes and a small handmade Sicilian sweet treat to take home — a traditional edible gift to enjoy as a memory of the experience.
Please note: I live with two friendly dogs, so guests should be comfortable around animals and enjoy a warm, informal home environment.
This experience is ideal for travelers who want to live Sicily like a local, connect with real traditions, and take home authentic memories.
