Among ancient tables and crystal chandeliers, everything is rigorously lived including the wooden floor made from old oak barrels, the restored and unearthed concrete floor tiles, the old glazed majolica from various parts of Sicily carefully selected and integrated with custom designed furnishings. In the distribution of spaces, the role of the counter is decisive: a central element not only in an architectural sense, but also in an emotional sense, because it contains the kitchen, the beating heart of the space.
Almost all the accessories have been recovered and adapted to the concept, in particular the brass and glass chandeliers, the appliques with their soft lighting help to define a dreamy atmosphere, the appliques recall the old enamelled bell lamps with an industrial flavor and specially made by artisans. A sign of attention to every detail reveals the raw and lived soul of the space, the lime and the earthenware of the walls, the rough stone pillars have been specially left with the signs of time, cracks and soft colors that let us glimpse an identity and a history to be preserved. Even the vaults adorned with lace was an important intervention to dress the space and recall the pure Sicilian essence.
The vertical green wall inserted in the central space of the space designed to divide the spaces of the local almost to interrupt the elegance of the restaurant and accompany you in the more informal area of the bistro and the store distributed in the iron and wood furnishings placed in the walls. Preserving was the natural "pre-existence". The restaurant offers a space where the customer can immediately feel at home surrounded by a magical atmosphere in a setting of great effect, where cuisine and design are allied with the past.
