Just a few kilometers from the famous Roman Villa in Piazza Armerina, a beautifully preserved 18th-century farmhouse, nestled in the heart of the Sicilian hinterland, offers a unique journey into the ancient culinary traditions of the island’s aristocratic and rural heritage.
As you step onto the estate, you'll feel as if you've traveled back in time, thanks to the restoration work carried out by the owners with care and love, keeping alive the family’s history and traditions, including its rich culinary heritage.
Before putting on your apron and getting to work, you’ll take a stroll through the estate’s gardens to hand-pick aromatic herbs and seasonal vegetables needed for the dishes in your hands-on Sicilian cooking class. After getting your feet dirty while exploring the vegetable garden, it will be time to roll up your sleeves and prepare some of the most cherished family recipes, including the unmissable ricotta-filled ravioli sautéed with fresh herbs.
You’ll conclude your experience with a delightful lunch, savoring the dishes you've created, perfectly paired with excellent wine and other specialties from the area—a feast for all the senses!
