The menu at MATERIA – The Stories from the Soil emerges from the union of nature and ingredients, striking a balance between authentic flavors deeply rooted in the local terroir.
A sensory narrative in which raw ingredients interact with culinary art and tradition, creating an experience that evolves over time and across the seasons.
For the evening of May 17th, the menu will be dedicated to the Infiorata di Noto: a tribute in which flowers take center stage, weaving their way into every course and transforming the dish into a composition inspired by the ephemeral and symbolic beauty of this celebration. The dining experience will be accompanied by a selection of wines from the Tasca d’Almerita winery, in a dialogue with the Sicilian territory.
On May 22nd, the menu instead opens with a four-handed collaboration between Chef Gabriele Camiolo and Chef Accursio Craparo: a shared vision that takes shape in an entirely plant-based menu, where ingredients express themselves in their purest and most contemporary essence. On this occasion, the wine pairing becomes a true journey through Italy, with labels selected from different regions to accompany each course.
Both experiences unfold across four courses, four chapters that delve into the roots of the land and local memory, following the rhythm of micro-seasonality.
A journey in which every gesture and every taste reveal the deep connection between people, nature, and the land.
