What people are saying about Ragusa

My wife and I had a great time! Our Cesarina (Luciana) and her husband Antonio were very kind and welcoming. The market tour was fun, and we had a few snacks while shopping. The cooking class was wonderful, and I learned quite a few tricks! I can’t until I get home to try it myself. After making the meal - the best part was that we were then able to eat it and enjoy a great bottle of wine with it. My only warning is make sure you go hungry! Between the antipasti, pasta, dessert, etc., it was a lot of food, and all very good, and by the time I left I was FULL!

Fun experience, even when considering the overall atmosphere and the use of local ingredients in traditional plates. However, I think that the price is a bit too exaggerated when one compares that no ingredient is considered expensive.

We enjoyed our class very much. We ranged in ages from 17-56 and our chef encouraged everyone to participate. She was amazing and we loved it!
