    Angela was very welcoming into her beautiful apartment. We learnt confidently how to make delicious bruschetta tortalloni and ravioli including chef’s secret and as if that wasn’t enough, we lernt the delights of canolimisu (if I‘m spelling that right) we wanted for nothing

    My wife and I just got done with the class this evening and we loved it!! Our host was so kind and invited us into her flat, led us in preparing a wonderful meal with items from the local market, and engaged us with great conversation. We learned about Sicily and cooking all at once! The only trouble we had was the address GYG has is incorrect. A last-minute email from GYG fortunately came through and we walked (only 300m) to the correct address. Thanks so much for hosting us!

    Anna is personable and shares many tips about cooking with traditional Sicilian products and techniques. She speaks English well, and is very kind. This is a hands-on experience which will encourage you to make your own pasta or pizza! The price is a good value.
