Chef Massimo was enthusiastic and engaging. The class started with a market tour, where he gave us tips on how to select the best fish and produce. After purchasing ingredients for the class, we walked to his house. The cooking class was well organized, efficient, and everyone was encouraged to participate. We made three appetizers, handmade pasta with sauce, braised fish, meatballs in lemon leaves, and a side of squash. There were only six people in our class. After cooking, we enjoyed eating the food we prepared, drinking wine made by someone the chef knows, and admiring the views from his house.

We had a great experience with Chef Massimo during our 10-day Cooking in Sicily Road Scholar trip. Massimo is very knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease while his pleasant teaching style makes learning to cook fun and easy. We made several delicious meals during our culinary exploration. We had a blast and made friends along the way. I greatly recommend Chef Massimo to anyone learning to cook authentic Sicilian dishes.

The trip was booked through Road Scholar. We toured part of the day, and part of the day was at Chef Massimo’s house learning to cook multi-course meals. We then ate the meal we had prepared. The trip was eight days in Sicily, which included four cooking lessons with Chef. Each cooking class was more extensive, building on the skills and knowledge we gained in the previous class. With a group of only 16, we all had plenty of hands-on experience preparing each course. Chef’s house has a very nice area for food prep, and, when the weather is nice – as it was during our stay – he has a great outdoor area for dining. His staff do amazing work in prepping and cleaning the areas, so we could spend time learning to cook and enjoying the fruit of our labors. No matter your level of experience, Chef Massimo will move you to another level. I had not done much cooking prior to this class, but I came away learning so much. Others in the class who were quite familiar with cooking large meals also came away having learned so much. Prior to one cooking class, Chef met us at a farmers’ market and gave us a lesson on selecting the best vegetables, fruits, fish and meats for our meals. We learned to look at the product for quality and not be distracted by the presentation or display when picking the best product. This experience exceeded my every expectation. And, as a follow up to class, Chef sent us a copy of every recipe we used in the class so we could replicate them at home. We are already planning on when we would begin to use the recipes that we most enjoyed making and eating.

Delightful from start to finish. Shopping was a unique experience understanding how things are marketed as local or fresh, and actually neither. Butcher shop so clean and meatballs prepared from there awesome, and I rarely eat beef products. Massimo is energetic, professional, instructive and engaging. His home where food prepared was perfect- nice view from prep area and great patio to eat with new friends. If you have time, don’t miss out on this opportunity. Food was simple and delicious and recipes sent will be shared with family and friends. Enjoyed by entire group and homemade wine an added treat.

We did several cooking classes in Palermo and Taormina while touring Sicily and although we enjoyed all of them, this was by far the best and most comprehensive class. Beautiful setting, the tour of the market was very informative, the class itself was very excellent, and the food we created was delicious and beautiful. Looking forward to using the recipes and skills learned now that I am home. Thanks for such a wonderful experience Massimo!!!

This was one of my favorite experiences of a wonderful three weeks spent in Italy. Chef Massimo provided much information about the purchase of fresh foods. Of course, he is an extraordinary teacher of cooking. Lessons were fun and friendly in a beautiful environment overlooking the sea. Later we shared a wonderful meal of all we had prepared! I would definitely attend additional classes with him on my next visit to Taormina! Grazie Massimo, e grazie per le ricette!

Wonderful experience! Great thing to do with family especially with your mom or dad because chef’s sensitive to their needs. Beautiful places to be… Started with shopping and then cooking. Everybody gets a task so much helpful information! And Chef is just really good at making it fun and the food ends up tasting awesome.

The best part of my Road Scholar's Cooking in Sicily tour. Chef Massimo accommodated my dietary needs, I'm a pescatarian, as he did for others. We made uncommon, local meals, with fresh ingredients. This was not a demonstration of how to make pesto! Local wines were generously poured with our multiple course meals. His school is well equipped and in a lovely setting away from the tourist area of Taormina. Chef Massimo made working in the kitchen fun and going to the fish and vegetable market an informative adventure.
