It’s The People

I love sharing Sicily with you. And the New York City walking and tasting tour I’ve created enables me to do that State side–as much as one can! Saturday’s Cannoli Crawl was a joyful experience of sights, sounds, tastes, and people, like our Experience Sicily client (for whom we designed a tour last year), Susan, pictured left, and John, the baker at one of our stops, Pasticceria Rocco on Bleecker Street. John’s contribution to our “cannoli shop talk” and his friendliness are a significant attraction for our guests like Susan. These interactions are what makes our day special.

On the Cannoli Crawl, we explore New York City through its cuisine, its history, and most importantly, through its people… all with a southern Italian and Sicilian accent. I hope you’ll consider joining me for one of the upcoming dates. I think your heart will be warmed and your stomach filled with so much more than cannoli!
