What to expect

You will cook every dish with your own hands and learn how to recreate Sicilian flavors when you go back home. This is not a demonstration — you will cook everything yourself. It’s a small journey into Sicilian food, traditions and my family recipes. When you go back home, you won’t just remember Sicily — you’ll be able to cook it.
