He honed his skills at culinary school before working at the Michelin-starred Cambio Restaurant in England, where he rose to sous chef. After returning to Italy, he pursued his love for hospitality as a private chef, dedicated to sharing the rich flavors and traditions of Sicilian cuisine. Today, Luca hosts guests alongside his mother in her charming apartment in Catania’s city center, just a 5-minute walk from Piazza del Duomo, offering an authentic, home-cooked experience infused with Sicilian warmth and tradition.
