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!
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!!
I can't recommend this cooking class enough. Maria Pia and Lorenzo are the best!! Everything we made was delicious and repeatable. It truly was a magical night I will never forget.

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.
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!
This was amazing! The combination of mama corleone (the chef) and Lorentzo (translator) was Great! Lorentzo was very funny and mamma Corleone had alot of knowledge about cooking that went far beyond our expectations! 10/10 would do again! //Markus
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.
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.
I must say I was pleasantly surprised by this cooking class. It was a great way to spend quality time learning how to do something now - create a tasty, authentic recipe. Maria and Karim were so polite, friendly and fun. It was 3.5 hours of cooking and it was so enjoyable it felt like it was only a half hour. This class was the highlight if my trip! Devo dire che sono rimasto piacevolmente sorpreso da questo corso di cucina. È stato un ottimo modo per trascorrere del tempo prezioso imparando a fare qualcosa adesso: creare una ricetta gustosa e autentica. Maria e Karim erano così educati, amichevoli e divertenti. Sono state 3,5 ore di cottura ed è stato così piacevole che sembrava che fosse solo mezz'ora. Questa lezione è stata il momento clou del mio viaggio!
The cooking class was great. Maria and Sebastian were great to work with. I learned how to make authentic Italian dishes which I’m excited to try when I get home!
