A Sicilian Table

Some of Sicily’s most memorable meals are not served in restaurants. These honest and personal meals happen at home, around a table where dishes arrive slowly, glasses are refilled, and conversation becomes as important as the food itself. 

Step into an elegant private residence in Palermo, complete with a panoramic terrace overlooking the city and sit for a lunch (or dinner) inspired by the traditions of a typical Sicilian family table. The experience begins with an antipasto and unfolds through a first course, second course and dessert, accompanied by local wine and the stories behind the recipes. 

The seasonal menu may include caponata, panelle, baked anelletti, pasta with fresh vegetables or seafood, involtini, fish from the local market, slow-cooked meats, citrus desserts, cannoli, or other favorites chosen according to the ingredients available and the host’s inspiration. 

There is no performance and no restaurant formality, only genuine hospitality, generous cooking, and the pleasure of sharing a meal in a real home. Guests leave not simply having tasted Sicily but having experienced the warmth with which Sicilians enthusiastically welcome people to their table.
