Six Guests, One Nonna, One Unforgettable Table.

We believe the best flavors come from the best company. We intentionally keep your classes tiny—just 6 guests—to ensure you aren't just a face in a crowd.

The uniqueness lies in the "Dopopranzo" (the time after the meal). We don't just cook and leave; we sit, we share local wine, we tell stories of old Palermo as a family.

The experience begins with a warm welcome, as Nonna shares the heritage of the menu. Then, the dance begins. With step-by-step guidance, you will cook side-by-side with Nonna, learning the family secrets of cuisine. The host stays by her side throughout, ensuring every technique and story is shared.

The finale: we sit together to enjoy the authentic meal you prepared with the nonna.

Buon appetito e salute!
