Exceptional Cooking Class - We had a great time with Chef Mimo and his crew. We were transported from the Taormina city center down to his restaurant by the water with a beautiful view! Mimo and his crew were prepared for our arrival and all went smoothly. Mimo was very knowledgeable about the dishes and shared details of their history over the years. We each made a pizza and several cannolis from scratch. After both were complete, we all sat together to enjoy our creations with complimentary bruschetta & wine.

Best Experience in Sicily - This was the best experience! We had a great time and learned so much. Domenico and his family were so welcoming and friendly. Making pizza and cannoli was so much fun. We laughed, ate pizza and cannoli and drank wine. What could be better. I would 100% recommend this class. Loved everything about it.

Excellent cooking class by the water - This experience was incredible from the moment it started! We were picked up in Taromina and brought to the restaurant where the cooking class was held. Massimo was excellent and truly has a passion for what he does. We loved learning about different recipes and processes to make pizza and cannolis. The views from the restaurant of the sea were absolutely gorgeous. We loved the hands on learning and loved enjoying what we had made afterwards. Would highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting an authentic cooking class on pizza and cannolis. Note: we did not make the filling but made the shell and then filled the cannolis and decorated them. This class went above and beyond our expectations!

Very Disappointing - It took almost an hour to get from the pickup location to the restaurant. There should be options for just meeting at the restaurant if we preferred. The chef Mimmo was nice, but he was running two classes at the same time. 6 in our pizza class and about 18 in another pasta class. We were disappointed with the slowness of the experience, the transportation and the lack of attention during our class. We learned how to make pizza dough and canoli shells. We did not realize that a 6pm start would result in a 9:15pm dinner to eat the pizza. We didn't even eat it and took it for take out, but never got a chance to eat it.
