Excellent experience for all ages! Maria is an exceptional Chef and Lorenzo brings it all together with his translation skills and his ability to make everyone feel like family. We learnt so much about authentic Sicilian cooking. The meatballs were to die for! And they even accommodated my daughter’s food allergies. Truly wonderful experience, Highly recommend!
Amazing experience!!

Mamma Corleone is right in Palermo city center. Very cozy and authentic house and Maria Pia and her staff are just lovely and amazing! Learned to make pasta (tagliatelle) from scratch, polpette and a typical sicilian dessert. She was very attentive to technique and detail and the quality of all the ingredients was top notch! We had the best time and a cherished memory from Palermo thanks to Mamma Corleone and her staff! Definitely recommend!!
1000000/10! A must if you're in Palermo

The best experience we had in Palermo! Lorenzo is an excellent translator and personable. It was nice to talk with him. Mia was patient and able to accommodate gluten free pasta and meatballs. Very clean kitchen, quaint, and enjoyable experience. The food was delicious! We recommend Mamma Corleone to anyone wanting to try a cooking class. It was a memorable experience we will cherish forever.
A wonderful and unforgettable evening

Fun and amazing cooking experience. (Thanks to Lorenzo and mamma Corleone) Like stepping into a loving and warm Italian familys home and feeling like one of them. We left the kitchen grateful, with a smile on our faces and full bellies. Amazing!
Tanks for a good time!

Great host ! Great food! It was very challenging finding and getting to location from our cruise ship. Suggest nailing down local transportation prior to leaving ship.
A fun and informative Italian cooking class!

We love food and took this class for an enjoyable end to our visit to Sicily. It was very informative, fun and the food was delicious! Mamma Corleone timed this class perfectly! First, we made our pistachio dessert so it would chill for after dinner. Next, we prepared a pasta dough. While that rested we prepared eggplant. Then we made meatballs and tomato sauce. We cut the dough into tagliatelle and then put it all together for a wonderful meal of pasta alla Norma. A bottle of wine was opened to add to that authentic dining experience. Lorenzo helped with the English translation and his humor and energy kept this a fun class. All of us consider ourselves pretty good at cooking and walked away with added tips.
Fun cooking class
