- Daniela was so welcoming and accommodating. She offered to pick us up from the cruise and gave us a short tour on the way to her Maison. The experience really makes you feel like a having a friend when you visit Messina... with great food as well! Eccezionale!
- Daniela picked us up at the port and showed us around the city. Wonderful spread waiting for us at her home. We made pasta from scratch and enjoyed wine in the sun as she prepared an amazing lunch for us out of our own pasta!!
- Fantastic day with Daniela! So much fun learning to make caponata, arancini, pasta, and cannoli. And so much more to this wonderful food experience.
- Absolutely wonderful experience! Daniela is a wonderful chef and host. We made pasta, carbonara, arancini and cannolis. We ate on the terrace on china, with fabulous wine. Interactive- she’ll let you participate as much or as little as you’d like. The location is fabulous, the food delicious, the experience Devine. And if you’re lucky, Daniela’s mom will show up in full Sicilian old school charm!
- Excellent! So much fun!! Wonderful experience that we highly recommend! Daniella and her family and friends offer such hospitality opening their home to us, recipes and instruction and you get enjoy the food you make! Don’t miss this experience if you’re in Messina!

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.
