THE FORAGER
chef tested hard to find and unusual products

Sicily is of Italy but not Italy, as we found out in a very special visit.

Elisa Celli, our leader, introduced us to Bella Vita, the beautiful life of Sicily and the very highest levels of hospitality and cuisine. Sicily Luxe is a not to be missed experience!

8 of us went -see the group, Elisa Celli, national best-selling author, TV hostess/producer; Joseph Cillo, fbworld.com Travel and Events Editor; Mary Buttaro, fbworld.com Photo Editor; Mark & Jo Lichtman, film producers and talent agents; Ed Dudkowski, TV Director/Director of Videography; Pat Orner, event chronicler, production associate and Bernard MacElhenny, international real estate developer
