Discovering Sicilian cookery is like discovering Sicilian history. Various civilizations – Greek, Roman, Arabs, Normans, Spanish and British – have left their mark and from the gastronomic point of view, their influence is still in evidence in modern day Sicilian cooking. Courses in Sicily are £1,599 with no single supplement they are held in May, June and October and are 8 days/7 nights. Our Cookery School in Sicily is based at the enchanting Villa Sicily.

To let you discover the flavours of Sicily we have based our venue in the south east of the island: the place where it all began. The surrounding area is dotted with well know historical sites – such as Siracusa Greek Theatre, the Temples of Agrigento and various Baroque towns such as Noto and Ragusa – as well as popular gastronomic locations such as Pachino for cherry tomatoes, Modica for chocolate, Avola for almonds and wine, Ragusa for Caciocavallo cheese and so on…if all this talk of food is making you hungry, then have a look at our Sicilian Recipes...

Flavours Sicilian itinerary is not just about being in the kitchen, as we say, 'Cooking's just the half of it'. The other half involves wine tastings and trips to places such as the village of Noto and the picturesque cities of Ragusa and Modica. You can read a guide to the beautiful city of Modica on our blog
