One outstanding investment

Larry_S, May 2026
Sicily days review Our Cooking Class in a CountryHouse near Cefalu was outstanding. Our host, Patrizia, is more than cordial, an accomplished chef, welcoming and very accommodating. Want to participate, participate. Want to watch, watch. The Country House was wonderfully located half way up the mountain with a spansive view right down to the sea. Every angle was breathtaking. Cook a bit, have some wine, check out the view, rinse and repeat. Insights provided not only to the Sicilian food but the culture as well. It was an outstanding investment in time and funds. Not only is the host most competent in the kitchen but she is kind as well. My wife was experiencing some minor medical concerns and Patrizia went well out of her way to make sure she was accommodated. A very fine lady. We are most grateful to have met.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you Larry and Iris, meeting was outstanding! Your kindness and gentle touch are very rare qualities. Thank you from my heart🙏❣️ Patrizia

Wonderful family cooking experience in Reitano

Mary_E, Jun 2024
What a wonderful experience with Patrizia in Reitano! Her home was beautiful and our family enjoyed cooking with her. The food and conversation was amazing! Our daughters, ages 11 and 17, enjoyed it so much. They are excited to cook Pasta Norma when we return home to California!

Mary! Many thanks, please come to Reitano back and stay there with us! Patrizia
