Amazing Cooking Experience - My friend and I were given this class as a gift and we are so happy we got to experience cooking with Mimmo! We made pizza and cannoli and Mimmo was very informative and gave us the opportunity to do everything ourselves. The food and ingredients were all incredible. His wife, brother and sweet father were all there to help as well. We loved everything about this experience - grazie Mimmo and familly!

Very friendly, experienced, fun, yummy. - It was amazing. So nice to hear about local culture from a local. The whole staff were friendly, and very clear despite English not being their first language. There was too much food to eat, but it was also lovely to be given a few extra dishes to try just to experiance the flavours.

Best night in Taormina - We took this cooking class in Taormina and it was one of our favorite nights of the entire trip — a true must-do. We made pizza and cannoli completely from scratch, and everything was absolutely delicious. The chef, who owns the restaurant, was hilarious and had such a great personality. He made the class fun, relaxed, and engaging from start to finish. The food was amazing, but what really made the night special was the experience itself — watching everyone cook, learning together, laughing, and then sitting down to enjoy what we made. It was a perfect mix of hands-on, entertaining, and delicious. We loved every minute of it and highly recommend this cooking class to anyone visiting Taormina. Truly a memorable and special evening.

Fun trip. Good value. Highly recommend! - Really fun evening. Went as a couple. There were 7 other people from 2 families. Very well organised. We were met in the centre of Toarmina and transferred to the family restaurant in Giardini Naxos where Mimmo and his family were waiting. Free flowing white wine with bruschetta to start and then we made the cannoli and pizza under the expert guidance from Mimmo and his mother. Pizza was delicious and we learnt lots of tips from Mimmo. Limoncello to finish with our cannoli. Tried one cannoli but packaged up the other 3 to take back to the hotel as we were pretty full! Included a transfer back at 9pm. Great value. Highly recommend. Mimmo messaged the recipes and some others too as soon as we were back at the hotel.
