A big thank you to the folks at the Daytime TV Show and hosts Maggie and Farron for an awesome time doing a little cooking for their Delicious Stories and Food segment.
Checkout the link below for today's show and our fun experience preparing one of the recipes in my book, 'Freedom to Wander', which is available on Amazon.com.
If you want to try this dish in Sicily in the fall, we still have just a few spots open for our Sicily Erupting with Culture tour.
Let me know what you think.

It was an amazing night. The official book launch of “Freedom to Wander”, a memoir about how a banker turned into an Italian travel specialist.
Thank you to all my guests for attending and to all the people who have helped me along the way.
As a result of all the love and support I’ve received over the past 10 years from my friends, family, and clients, the transformation could happen.
See you in Italy!

Full House at the Bird Key Yacht Club last night. Pasta preparation Demonstration and Tales of Italy from my book “ Freedom to Wander”.
Following the demonstration, members enjoyed a fabulous Italian themed meal prepared by Executive Chef Richard Mendoza and his team. The culmination was a special tribute dessert of Tiramisu inspired and created by Robert’s cousin who had helped reveal the joys of Italy to him a number of years ago and is featured in his book.

UNESCO Villa Romana del Casale Incredible Mosaics. After a great lunch in Piazza Armerina special place, we visited The Villa Romana del Casale. One of the finest examples of ancient Roman villas, so well preserved that it still manages to show us the life of the predominant social and economic class in the Roman age.
In 1997 it was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List for its splendid mosaics, still in perfect condition, covering some 3,500 square metres, with depictions of heroes and gods, scenes of hunting, games and everyday life. Ending the day relaxing in our private Villa and Live Music and welcome dinner.

Our Sicilian Tours starts in charming Taormina.
Taormina is a hilltop town on the east coast of Sicily. It sits near Mount Etna, an active volcano with trails leading to the summit. The town is known for the Teatro Antico di Taormina, an ancient Greco-Roman theater still used today. Near the theater, cliffs drop to the sea forming coves with sandy beaches.
We tour the city and the next day we go to Mount Etna. On the descent we visit Murgo Winery for a tasting of the special wines from the mountain along with a home Sicilian prepared lunch.
For 2024 availability and questions message us.
