Hidden Gems

Whether you’ve been visiting the famous Riace Bronzes in Reggio Calabria or the spellbinding sword fishing village of Scilla for the day, sitting down at sunset, in a cliffside cafe at the edge of the historic centre of the gem town that is Tropea is a once in a lifetime. Overlooking the white sandy beaches, the rock of Santa Maria dell'Isola and the island volcano of Stromboli, while tucking into snacks of Nduja salami or the sweetest, world-famous red onions and sipping a glass of Gaglioppo wine, they are truly unique experiences that will stay with you forever.

Q & A

1. What was your most memorable holiday meal?

I have enjoyed amazing dishes in my travels to Italy, but I visited Sicily recently with my family and had the most amazing street food in Palermo.Some top dishes were the Panelle and Panino con Le Panelle, Arancini, Sfincione and Polpo bolito. All finished with Cannoli and Granita Ca Brioscia.


2. What is the best thing about being in Italy?

As I’m lucky to speak the language, I enjoy talking to the locals. But whatever language you speak to them, Italians love to showcase their country, their culture, and their food.


3. Where would you love to go next, and why?

Piemonte (Piedmont), it’s such a unique and diverse area. 


4. Do you prefer visiting cities, coast or countryside, and why?

I love visiting them all, many times, combining them on the same trip.
