Palermo market: Sicilian cooking and enjoying - My husband and I, with 2 other visitors to Palermo, enjoyed a wonderful time shopping for fresh produce for our Sicilian cooking class in Donna Patrizia’s kitchen. Together with her daughter, Giuliano, she choose the food for our meal and then explained how to prepare it. The meal itself was delicious and we were given the recipes so we could prepare the dishes now that we are at home. The entire time was well organized and lots of fun. Highly recommend this experience.
