What you can expect
Join me for a 2.5-hour Street Food Tour and discover the island where I grow up through the eyes of a local. Uncover hidden corners of my island often missed and savour a variety of authentic Sicilian specialities.
We start with a refreshing Sicilian coffee, followed by the iconic Arancino, a savoury rice ball with ragú that will delight your taste buds.
Then, we’ll explore the island’s charming, off-the-beaten-path areas, leading us to the bustling local fruit and vegetable market.
At the market, meet my friend Francesco, who will introduce us to Capuliato (sun-dried tomato pesto), artisanal salami, and local cheeses. Enjoy delicious almond pastries, rich pistachio cream, and the best panino of your life from a renowned mozzarella maker.
Our tour concludes at the city’s top gelateria, where you’ll savour refreshing granita made with seasonal fruit. My personal favourite is the mulberry flavour!
Please note that dishes may vary based on seasonal availability. My goal is to provide an authentic local experience with fresh, organic ingredients.
Immerse yourself in Sicilian heritage and enjoy my island like a local, with a local!
