Your experience

    I love to enrich traditional dishes with a modern twist, respecting, indeed, enhancing the scents and flavors of our land. Grandma's salad, a typical dish of Catanese folk tradition, becomes a gourmet dish when quality ingredients are used, such as datterini, oregano "scopazza," soft salted ricotta, and e.v.o. nocellara dell'Etna oil. Pasta with almond pesto, a traditional recipe from Catania, is enhanced by new aromas and flavors, such as lemon zest, etc. Pork loin, used for classic oven-baked recipes, is instead left to soften with extravecchio brandy and simmered with a cream of white onions. The traditional tiramisu becomes "Sicilian" with the addition of "marsala."

    My main expertise lies in pasta dishes, but I don't underestimate the importance of velvety soups and meat and fish entrees. My culinary creations draw inspiration from traditional Sicilian and Calabrian recipes, reinterpreted with a modern twist. I prefer using local ingredients, so-called "zero kilometer" products, to create a unique harmony that enhances the authentic colors, fragrances, and flavors of our region. I invite you to try a pasta dish seasoned with my almond and basil pesto, or an intriguing pistachio and sun-dried tomato pesto. I also offer delightful options made with red tuna and mint; pork or beef fillet enriched with vintage vinegar and white onion cream; potato meatloaf embellished with red tuna and capers. And to sweetly conclude, I propose traditional desserts made with ricotta or pistachio cream, among many other delicacies.
