The cooking class was great. In total it was me and 2 other ladies who were sisters and then Mama Corleone and her assistant who translated between English and Italian for us. We made a shrimp pesto pasta dish, a fish dish and canollo's too!! It was a lot of fun and it was great to learn to make these dishes from scratch and with fresh ingredients. When we ate the pasta with the pesto and shrimp, it was the best pasta dish I have ever tasted. It was so good. We had a lot of fun and we got to take home any food we had made but didn't manage to eat. The class is held in a little cosy rustic kitchen but with modern hobs etc so it was very easy to cook in there. At first I was worried I was going to be late as I couldn't find where it was even though I was on the correct street however I found it in the end. It is easy to find, you just go into the street from the main square and just keep walking down until you feel like you are near the end of the street and then you will see a little door on the left with the cooking school name on it. I had a lot of fun there and would love to do another cooking class with Mama Corleone in the future if I am in Palermo again. Definitely worth booking a class here!

Fantastico! I took 3 other cooking classes with different chefs. Chef Antonio by far was the very best. You not only learn how to make delicious dishes , but you are throughly entertained by Chef Antonio’s charming and humorous personality. You feel like you are cooking and eating with your own Sicilian family. This class is a must while in Sicily.

We had the best time learning about Sicilian specialities and making the best cannoli ever! Highly recommend this cooking class. It was really fun, informative and lovely to share a meal with the class. Mama Corleone is an absolute delight.

This was the best cooking class we've ever visited! The food was so tasty, much better then the food you get in the restaurants! The recipies you learn are not so complicated, so you receive a menu you are able to cook at home afterwards, so you have a lasting souvenir from sicily. Also the mamma is really lovely and kind and our translator, Lorenzo translated us everything with fun and joy, so we had a great time! We can warmly recommend this to everyone who love cooking, food and are interested in a real sicilian experience - grazie mille!

Giusi and nora had a great energy and it was a pleasure for us to do that class with them. Next time when we are in Sicily we want to do that again it was very familiar and the communication was perfetto. The food 10/10! We are in Sicily for 2 weeks now and the cuisine in the best restaurants was not as good as the recipe’s from giusi. We loved the class and I hope we see us soon. Great experience! We will recommend giusis class to all our friends! Noras german translation was also 10/10! Grazie Nora and giusi it was muy bien!

Mamma Corleone is the best! She walked us through fish in marinara, a shrimp pesto pasta, and cannoli, and everything turned out amazing. I had no idea I could cook something so tasty, and she helped make it easy. She's charming and funny, and our translator Sophie was phenomenal!! 10/10 would recommend.

Very welcoming and homely feel. Simple meals but very tasty and typical Sicilian dishes. I was the only one there so it was like a personal experience just for me. Lorenzo the translator was also very friendly and easy to chat with in between the cooking.

We had a great time. My teenage daughter and I learned a lot about cooking. We appreciated that our chef made one of the dishes gluten free so we could take back to other family members. If you have any food allergies, be sure to tell them ahead of time.
