Ancient Steps in Siracusa, Sicily

October 12, 2012 by Fiona Maclean 8 Comments

Roman amphitheatre at syracuse

Food and Antiquities in Siracusa: Our visit to Siracusa somehow didn’t seem to last long enough.  Although we started early and arrived in Ortygia, the old town,  by around 10am there seemed to be too much to see and not enough time to cover everything. We started our trip by visiting what Livia, our guide, […]

Marzamemi and Sicilian Tuna Fishing

sea - marzamemi sicily

Marzamemi – tranquil after the end of the Mattanza: Despite my aspirations as a food and travel writer, I knew nothing about the mattanza and tuna fishing in Sicily until my recent visit. Ostensibly our trip to Marzamemi was for the benefit of the art students in our group who were looking for subject matter […]

Wine Tasting at Tenuta Dei Fossi, Sicily

tenuta dei fossi puppy

Tenuta Dei Fossi, Sicily: My recent trip to Sicily included just one trip to a vineyard.  And, I suspect I was not alone in losing concentration on the wine once I saw the feast of food provided for us as part of the wine tasting.  This spread is just part of the first course!  The […]

Donnafugata and Artisan Cheese Making in Sicily: Arriving at Donnafugata after dark is stunning – driving to the top of the hill, approaching the building blazing with lights that illuminate the fine neo-gothic facade.  But our trip to this 17th Century Castello was to learn about Ricotta and Caciocavallo Ragusa – a DOP cheese that […]

Chocolate from Modica:

September 24, 2012 by Fiona Maclean 5 Comments

modica chocolate shop

Bonajuto Artisan Chocolate from Modica It would be tempting to say the first sight of Modica in Sicily, from up in the hills, is the best. My initial impression was that it would be hard to surpass.  Stop and look across the gorge to the city, for me at least, the Sicily I had imagined […]

Sicilian Cookery – Cavatieddi and Lolli

September 23, 2012 by Fiona Maclean 6 Comments

lolli pasta

Sicilian Cookery and Pasta Made Simple: I’ve never made pasta.  I thought you needed a pasta machine and a lot of skill to get the pretty shapes that you can buy in the shops.  And, it all seemed something of a mystery to me.  But, when I arrived in Sicily for a holiday with Flavours […]
