Food Tour: discover the best places where to taste the finest local food & wine

Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Sicilian granita with brioches
  • Arancini
  • Lemon ravioli
  • Lasagna (homemade pasta)
  • Typical dessert

Our adventure begins at the port, where I’ll pick you up in my Fiat 500 for a short tour of the city. Along the way, you’ll discover two typical specialties of Messina: granita with brioche and arancini, authentic local flavors that tell the story of Sicilian tradition.

After this first experience, we’ll head to my home, where you’ll get hands-on in the kitchen! Together, we’ll prepare two types of homemade pasta: lasagna and ravioli filled with ricotta and spinach. At the end, we’ll enjoy everything we’ve made, accompanied by a glass of local wine, for a relaxed and convivial moment. To finish on a sweet note, we’ll taste a typical dessert from Messina, such as a cannolo or a soft "blancmange". It will be an unforgettable experience.

My cuisine is linked to tradition with a touch of poetic license for some foods, which are too strong for me. Born and raised in Messina, I actually learned the Messina tradition when I grew up, because my parents were originally from Gioiosa Marea and Piraino, provinces of Messina but with several differences in methodology. I try to combine these diversities in a taste that is, I would say, pleasant. I like to know and above all I would like these traditions not to disappear.
