We were on a cruise through the mediterranean and Palermo was my favorite day of the vacation because of our cooking class at Mama Corleone‘s. It was a short and beautiful walk from our cruise port to the school – it is just down the alley from a beautiful cathedral in Palermo.
Maria was so accommodating and customized the menu to our wish list. She was an great instructor and she and her translator never tired of our questions! The set up of the school is so intimate and allows everyone to have a hands-on experience, cooking their dishes at their own personal cook station – perfect for our group of six. Everything was delicious, but I was especially a fan of the octopus salad and the pasta with shrimp and pistachio, and the pistachio pudding for dessert—all so yummy! Highly recommend!
