Sicilian taste - We had the pleasure of having Siciliantaste at Melanina. It was a variety of local Sicilian products, from olive oils, pestos, sweet preserves to wines and liqueurs. All products come from local, small businesses. Their high quality was felt. The two lovely ladies talked with passion about the process of making and the history of these specialties. It was a very nice experience.
We bought, among other things pistachio pesto and made delicious Sicilian spaghetti with it.
For sure we will visit the place again next time we are in Giardini Naxos♡

Highlight of our Sicily trip - We did this tasting during the later evening session with wine. The products were out of this world! We have tried Sicilian artisanal products in other shops on our trip, but nothing came close to Melanina's curated collection of truly local olive oils, pastes, jams, etc. You can feel how much love went into making every product, and Melanina does a fantastic job relaying that heart from the maker to you. Also, it's an incredibly convention one-stop shop for foodie things to bring home!
Street parking nearby was free and easy. Driving here was a breeze too, seaside with no crazy big city traffic or mountain town tourist chaos.

A very nice tasting - Upon entering a small Shop in the search for some limoncello we found a very welcoming lady that invited us to try out some of their products they collect all over sicily. We got to try different olive oils, some wine and loads of tasty bruschette, with all kinds of different toppings. While we were enjoying the food and the drinks another lady called Marzia told us all about the products and their origin.
