    Highly recommended, super personable cooking experience!

    Matts_S, Oct 2025
    Our cooking class with Deborah was the highlight of our stay in Catania - she not only made us feel welcome in her beautiful home but shared all her knowledge and expertise on Sicilian cooking with us. Accommodating dietary restrictions was no issue at all for her, and she interacted really nicely with our 13 year old to keep her engaged and interested. Well worth the money and highly recommended!

    Amazing Sicilian cooking experience!

    Deborah’s cooking class was one of the best travel experiences we have ever had! Deborah is so talented and fun; she warmly shared her lovely kitchen and home, as well as her culinary talents. This was truly a hands-on experience for all. She fully and flexibly accommodated our dietary restrictions (it’s good to let her know these ahead of time!). We learned techniques and ingredients to create healthy and amazing dishes. “Cooking Sicily” is Deborah’s cooking venture, so follow her on instagram to share in the experience. This is a must for anyone visiting the Catania area. Grazie mille, Deborah! 🙂
