Doctor by day, chef by night, Antonio can only be described as a superhero.

This warmhearted Sicilian, who welcomed us with red wine in his ethereal garden, truly gave us an experience of a life time.

His beautiful place in Canicatti is a true paradise on earth with delicious fruits, colours and scents, where we spent the nights conversing on great topics and shared many laughs under the starry sky.

We spent two amazing nights at Antonio's, who spoiled us with mouthwatering dishes from the Italian cuisine. For a small fee he takes you on a culinary journey that will tickle all your senses.

From antipasti of fresh figs out of his garden and homemade marmelades with three types of goat cheese and ricotta, to real Sicilian primi such as parmigiano, caponata, spaghetti with mussels, and arancini, to heavenly secondi with fresh dorade, polpo filled with melanzane and foodgasmic dolce such as casata and granita siciliana.

Antonio's house is clean, warm, cozy, filled with books and love.

We already miss little Felicia, the cuddliest of the four little kittens that we played with in the garden.

We highly recommend this oasis, this little heaven on earth, and are looking forward to see Antonio again.
