In the comfort of my home, I'll let you taste typical Sicilian street food, the kind prepared in Messina's rosticceries, showcasing local delicacies: fragrant arancini, tasty potato croquettes, and delicious eggplant croquettes. We'll then prepare the traditional Messinese-style meat rolls, and to finish, the famous Sicilian cannoli. I look forward to hosting you for this fantastic experience!

- Mariella was our host and she was absolutely amazing. I really recommend this adventure to be able to have somebody pick you up. Take you to their beautiful home and tell you all about their beautiful town and country was wonderful. Not to mention what a great cook she was the food was incredible and she allowed us to cook some and showed us how to make pasta she made us like 15 different things and then we sat down at a beautiful dining table and we’re able to share stories with her very interactive experience. You won’t regret booking this so much better than just doing a normal tour. If you can get. Mariella in Messina do not hesitate!! The whole experience made our vacation!!
- What an experience! Like no other! If you want a true authentic Italian experience, this is it!

- Great experience! Mariella was awesome and the food was amazing! We will definitely be taking what we learned home with us and try to replicate the authentic Italian food that we made! We ate so much enjoying our creations we didn't have to eat the rest of the day!

Mariella
Cesarina from 2023Location: Messina Languages: Italian and EnglishMy 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.
