- Cavatelli
- Agnolotti (homemade pasta)
- Tiramisu
I love preparing traditional Sicilian dishes and look forward to welcoming you to my charming 1913 villa in Messina, with breathtaking views of the Strait. You will be treated to a unique gastronomic experience. We will start with a welcome aperitif, offering a variety of tastings, including fried anchovies, cheeses, and more. Next, we will immerse ourselves in the preparation of homemade pasta, opting for cavatelli and agnolotti with seasonally selected sauces, which may include ricotta or the classic sugo alla norma. Finally, we will conclude with the Italian dessert par excellence, tiramisu.

- What a lovely, lovely day. Class was fun and informative. Participating was a blast. The view, spectacular! We were greeted warmly. Daniela was the consummate host. I highly recommend this experience.
- Our cruise ship docked for the day in Messina. My boys wanted to learn how to make authentic, Italian homemade pasta. Daniella provided the perfect experience. She was so kind to open up her home and was very knowledgeable of the Sicilian techniques. It will be a favorite memory of ours!
- Maria Daniela was absolutely fabulous! My family and I had the pleasure of dining in her home in celebration for my mother’s birthday. The experience she curated beyond exceeded our expectations. She made every moment so special and her attention to detail was unmatched. We are so grateful for this experience and highly recommend!
- The best excursion ever!!!!! We were on a cruise of Italy and we met Daniela during our stop in Messina/Sicily. Her exuberant personality greeted us at the door of her home, yes her home which is stunning. She showed us how to make several different types of pasta and then canola. She made the whole experience fun and educational. Daniela made making/cooking homemade pasta seem so easy! We truly enjoyed the entire experience! I would recommend this experience for EVERYONE!!!!! You will not be disappointed!
- We loved our time with Daniela! She is warm and welcoming. It was such a joy to get to know her, see her beautiful home, and learn cooking from her. I really wanted to get to know the people in the cities we visited beyond the tours. Daniela gave us that experience. It was everything I hoped for.

Where
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.
