Best cooking lesson ever! - Teresa, was truly the best. We made cavatelli with ragu, pizza, and peach fig tiramisu. She catered the menu to meet our groups allergies. She is very clean and fun. At the same time she is very knowledgeable about cooking. Her English is fabulous. The cooking lesson is really organized and her backyard is such a beautiful set up. She provides amazing wine and coffee. So much food you will probably have leftovers too. It’s a really fun group activity. Only 15-20 mins from Ortigia and she organizes the transportation. Teresa sources her ingredients from the local market. Only the best ingredients. The cherries and peaches were so fresh.

She is so sweet and wonderful! Not to mention we made the most delicious two pastas, pizza, and a peach cake and it was some of the best I’ve ever had. The ingredients were so fresh and this was SO fun. We got wine and coffee as well!!! If you’re considering booking this while in Sicily- must do!!!!!!!

Ravioli di tonno fatti in casa contorno di Bobbia - un piatto sorprendente e gustoso! - A special experience in Teresa's kitchen and garden. My wife and I made a delicious tuna ravioli with tuna tartare beforehand and a strawberry desert after. Everything with fresh products we got at the Siracusa market and with fresh herbs from Teresa’s herb garden. If you are ever in Siracusa this cooking workshop is highly recommended.

Great Sicilian Cooking Lesson for my family! - My family and I enjoyed a cooking lesson with Theresa. We made pasta, a pizza, and arancini. Theresa was great, patiently showing my kids (who had limited cooking experience) how to make the dough and from the pasta. We all learned so much about Sicilian cooking with her. We had the lesson at Theresa’s house, which was perfect. It was easy to find and provides a great space for us to learn. We would definitely encourage anyone visiting Siracusa or Ortigia to take a class and recommend Theresa - it was a great experience!
