Sicily's volcanic cuisine
The Italian chef will be explaining how she fills the larder of her new seasonal restaurant in the foothills of Etna, Sicily.
Moving on from the Michelin star she earned in Milan (Viva), this summer Viviana Varese opened a restaurant on the Italian island of Sicily, in the foothills of the Etna volcano. She fills the larder of the new establishment with produce from this land eroded by the force of nature, redoubling her cuisine's ties to the land.
Varese will be in Lanzarote to report on her first season at W Villadorata Country Restaurant (Noto, Sicily), a restaurant that has been affected, like all the island's restaurants, by one of Europe's most famous ascending volcanoes.
