The antipasto prepared with the best seasonal vegetables that will immerse you in the Mediterranean atmosphere. We will prepare homemade pasta, such as cavatelli or tagliatelle with seasonally based seasoning, with ricotta or alla norma. Finally, the quintessential Sicilian dessert, cannolo con ricotta.

- The greatest excursion ever. EMERSIVE! Daniela opened up her home and she taught us how to cook a fantastic meal. The atmosphere was tremendous and the view was spectacular. If you have the opportunity to take advantage of this jewel it’s a must!
- Wow. A once in a lifetime experience! Daniela and Andrea took us to their house (Daniela’s home) and we made tagliatelle, and arancini. We also made cannoli for dessert. The food was incredible, but the intangibles are the reason to do this. You get to spend a day with a real sicilian and have real conversations with such wonderful people. We will come back! These people are so special.
- Very welcoming and friendly. Andrea and Daniela are a lovely team! I loved the hospitality, lessons and delicious food. Gracie Mille🥰
- This was the absolute highlight of our trip su far. You are welcomed so graciously, treated like a familiar guest, and learn so much about the food and culture. Highly recommend!
- Daniela was so welcoming and accommodating. She offered to pick us up from the cruise and gave us a short tour on the way to her Maison. The experience really makes you feel like a having a friend when you visit Messina... with great food as well! Eccezionale!

Maria Daniela
Cesarina from 2019Location: Messina (ME) Languages: Italian, English, SpanishIn Messina, there are so many things to see: churches, palaces, fortifications, fountains, and monuments. But to truly get to know this city, you also need to taste its traditional dishes. That’s why I believe the best way to experience the real Messina is through its flavors and aromas — and the best place to do that is in my home. I’m Maria Daniela, and I love the sea. From the garden of my 1913 villa, you can look out and enjoy the spectacular view of the Strait of Messina. With me, you can learn how to make maccheroncini al ferro — traditional fresh pasta seasoned with a rich sauce — and Messina-style veal cutlets, a dish I’ve been preparing since I was a child, when I helped my mother and sisters in the kitchen, filling and rolling them by hand.
