The Sicilian Cuisine Blog and my first official interview for 'Italian reflections'

Very proud and very grateful to Adrian Petersen for publishing the very first interview since my blog, Sicilian Cuisine, was born on January 2011.

When I first started it some people told me it wasn't going to be successful because of the "language barrier". "In English? Italians are not going to understand it!" - they used to tell me.

Well... today after 2 years and a half and after these little huge things that I have accomplished all by myself I have to say I was totally right and I am looking forward to having more and more to come !!!!!

THANK YOU :-)

"Top Italian food blogs for 2013": we are in!

I hope 2013 keeps going well, just as it started. Infact I am very happy to announce to my dear readers, (it sounds very official I know), that the Sicilian Cuisine Blog has been included in the list of the 'Top Italian Food Blogs & Websites to follow in 2013' and I am really thankful and honoured for that. The fact that my time, work and passion is recognized and appreciated by others is always a joy and an amazing result. 

So... while thanking the editor Adrien Petersen for appreciating my contents, I also would love to suggest you have a look at his website for its beautiful pictures and its interesting and rich content.

"Italian reflections for travellers, settlers and expats alike." 


I loved many sections: interviews, recipes, vacations, quotations... especially the one from the English writer Samuel Johnson that says:

"A man who has not been in Italy, is always conscious of an inferiority, from his not having seen what is expected a man should see." 

I couldn't agree more.


"Italian reflections for travellers, settlers and expats alike."  

I just feel like I am a bit of the three.
