About this Event

Episode #2 of Portugal Meets Sicily is set for April 30 - an evening designed to celebrate spring through vibrant flavors, generous pours, and unforgettable company.

Expect a seasonal menu crafted by Cucina Migrante using the freshest ingredients sourced from favorite local farmers and producers, brought to life through Sicilian-inspired dishes.

Each course will be paired with a remarkable selection of Portuguese wines, thoughtfully curated by The Vinho.

But this is more than just a dinner.
Our pop-ups are built around connection: communal tables, shared moments, and the kind of atmosphere where conversations flow as easily as the wine.

Between courses, Cucina Migrante and The Vinho will share the stories behind the dishes and bottles, creating a warm, lively, slightly loud international-style dinner. The kind where guests arrive as strangers and leave as friends.

Come hungry. Come curious. Come ready to engage with those around you.

This special edition will feature two guests from Sicily: Florinda Saieva, founder of Farm Cultural Park, presenting ‘Mmiscate’ an ancient dish from Favara, and Giuseppe Biundo, founder of the artisan beer Bruno Ribadi, offering an exclusive tasting.
