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

Shared Experience
Your experience

    This experience includes a tour with three tastings of local products. We will start with a fresh orange juice (depending on the season) or a glass of wine from a local winery. You will savor the famous Sicilian "rustici," such as arancini, cipolline, and cartocciate, followed by a delicious granita with brioche. All of this will take place in authentic locations, away from the usual tourist paths, in the wonderful setting of the historic center of Catania, where I will show you all its unique features.

    The most lovely man! Who’s taught us how to make real pasta from scratch along with his own almond pesto! We had an amazing evening that we’ll never forget. Maurizio was very kind and helpful! And even showed us his amazing piano skills at the end of the night. He really makes you feel at home we even got to feed the cat that lives on the roofs. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Booking with Maurizio was a great experience. He was a good teacher and the food we prepared was wonderful. He shared his music with us as well. I would highly recommend him.

    Maorizio is an interesting fellow, a mudician and cook. We had a very nice experience cooking with him two vegetable appetizers, and a special recepy of pork loin that he created. Everythibg was very tasety, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

    We had a wonderful day of cooking with Maurizio. He involved all four us and cooking from scratch made eating it so much more enjoyable, especially for the kids, who even ate eggplant! Maurizio was patient, humourous and welcoming throughout and it was a great family bonding experience in Catania.

    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.
