Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Cavatelli with Seasonal Toppings
  • Sicilian agnolotti
  • Tiramisù

I love to prepare traditional Sicilian dishes and look forward to welcoming you to my charming 1913 villa in Messina, with a breathtaking view of the Strait. You will be welcomed with a unique gastronomic experience. We will begin with a welcome drink, offering varieties of samples, including fried anchovies, cheeses and more. Afterwards, we will immerse ourselves in the preparation of homemade pasta, opting for cavatelli and agnolotti with seasonally selected toppings, which may include ricotta or the classic sugo alla norma. Finally, we will conclude with the Italian dessert par excellence, tiramisu."

I honestly had high hopes for a great experience and they were met and superseded my already high expectations. Maria Daniella was incredibly friendly, competent, delicious food etc etc etc. The home was super beautiful very accessible and clean. The views were spectacular. So not only was it delicious food that we got to make mostly ourselves but we ate on her covered balcony and over looked Sicily. The entire family was so pleased and well worth it.

Daniela is a wonderful hostess and ambassador for Messina. We had such a nice morning in the beautiful town of Messina. We enjoyed our time tasting specialties of the area and seeing the sites. Daniela is a lovely guide. We enjoyed her company and learning about the beautiful place she calls home.

We had such an amazing experience cooking, eating, drinking, and getting to know Daniela! Her hospitality is unmatched and her cooking class was absolutely a highlight of our vacation!

You cannot say you've been to Messina if you haven't been in Daniela's Kitchen. I've done several food tours around the World, but I have to say this experience was OUTSTANDING! Daniela brings you to one of the city markets where you can meet locals in their daily activities, taste local foods and experience what the real Messinese life looks like. You decide the menu, and what you are going to eat, with her while at the market, based on what the market has to offer that day. You'll go back to her house and cook your meal from start to end. You will enjoy your incredible meal with one of the best views of Messina, Daniela's terrace! GRAZIE DANIELA! Sei la migliore!!

Maria Daniela
Cesarina from 2019Location: Messina    Languages: Italian, English, Spanish
In Messina, there are many things to see: churches, palaces, fortifications, fountains, and monuments. But, to really get to know this city it is also a must to taste its typical dishes. So, you must therefore know the flavors and aromas typical of this part of Sicily and, the best place is at the home of our Cesarina. Maria Daniela loves the sea, and from the garden of her 1913 villa you can look out and enjoy the spectacular scenery of the Strait of Messina. Together with her, you can learn how to make "maccheroncini al ferro" - the traditional fresh pasta that is seasons with the sauce -, and the Messina-style veal cutlets, which she learned to fill and roll since she was a child to help her mother and sisters in the kitchen.
