Hi from Isabella!

My kitchen is truly the heart of the home — it's where my family gathers to celebrate everyday life, traditions, and special moments. It's a bright and welcoming space, filled with memories, books, handcrafted objects, and the scents of Sicily: aromatic herbs, vegetables from our garden, local wines, ceramics, and family photos.We welcome our guests with the flavors of tradition: homemade ricotta ravioli with meat and sausage sauce, sourdough bread made with ancient Sicilian grains, and Modica’s typical street food — such as scacce, scifiteddi, pastieri, and buccatedde — served with our own olives, fresh ricotta from nearby farms, classic arancini, and a special caponata.There’s also a personal touch: Bergamo-style polenta with Sicilian meat sauce — a flavorful mix that tells the story of our family’s journey away from and back to Sicily.Everything is made with local, seasonal, and genuine ingredients — many of which we grow or produce ourselves: stone-ground flours, olive oil from our trees, eggs from our hens, and fresh herbs and vegetables picked straight from our garden. And above all, there’s the love and passion passed down from my mother and grandmother.

Isa was very friendly, informative, and accommodating. She knew MODICA like the back of her hand. We explored the backstreet of this beautiful baroque historic center. And the places that she brought us to authentic, artisanal, and delicious! I recommend her 1000%!

We had a great wonderful evening with all the specialties that Sicily has to offer. it was a very nice and exclusive experience and we would book it again at any time and will recommend it to all friends who are on vacation in Italy 😀 the cesarine Isabella is a very great and sympathetic hostess and you can literally feel her passion for cooking and the individual regional ingredients. It was a beautiful evening all around 🍝❤️🍅
