Overview

The activity will be in groups and will last about 2 hours. We will start with a welcome aperitif, with bruschetta, cheeses, cold cuts and a good glass of Sicilian wine. Then we will begin to put our hands in the dough. We will proceed with the preparation of fresh pasta, such as tagliatelle and ravioli filled with ricotta. Then we will prepare an excellent "Alla Norma" sauce with fried aubergines, tomato sauce and salted ricotta. Finally prepare me the classic Sicilian dessert the "Cannolo" with ricotta cream! We will end the experience at the table where you and your friends will share the dishes prepared together and enjoy your meal!

What's Included

  • Tea and coffee During the tastings at the market and after lunch, the coffe or tea and cappuccino are all inclusive
  • Dinner The homemade dinner is "all inclusive"

    City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

    On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
