SICILIAN CIA'VURU, Sicily as told through its cuisine, memories, and conviviality.
Cooking experiences and in-home chefs to savor the flavors of Sicilian tradition, featuring family recipes, local ingredients, and moments to share.

For Sicilians, “Ciàvuru” is the aroma of the food you bring to the table—the scent you catch on the streets, a hallmark of the now-famous street food. But it’s also the aroma that wafts from homes, because traditions are passed down from season to season, giving rise to succulent and fragrant dishes.
