Though Agrigento is a modern city of about 60,000 on Sicily’s southwest coast, the majority of visitors come to experience the past just outside of town. At the Valley of the Temples (Valle dei Templi), citizens of the then-major Greek colony of Akragras began building seven Doric style holy monuments in the sixth century BC. The nearby Archaeological Museum helps put everything into context. Agrigento also has some fascinating sights in its old town, like the medieval Norman cathedral.

The association "goSicily: cook, eat, explore,cooking classes for tourists" was created with the aim of enhancing and pass on the flavors, places and traditions of Sicily of all time. The cooking classes, lasting about four hours,take place in a modern art gallery: "The Farm Cultural Park" and conclude with a tasting of prepared dishes. Everyone can participate.
My family of 6 adults were visiting family in Sicily. We wanted to learn to cook authentic Sicilian cuisine, and Annalisa was The Best instructor. We had a last minute change, due to a leg injury the day before, and Annalisa was great about rearranging our time with her. She has so much energy and passion, not only for cooking, but the quality of the ingredients. That passion was infectious, and we had a blast making the pasta, and all the dishes. One person even made a whale of his pasta, and in a flash, Annalisa was posting it and showing it off on her channel. It was a fun, and delicious experience.
