A good Island. In the heart of Taormina, a few steps from the Duomo Cathedral, in the ancient and charming home Cipolla. In a historic palace of the late fifteenth century, with two large Roman cisterns (hence the name, in greek), “Kiste” is a place where to find a selection of the best Sicilian flavors to be enjoyed inside or outside the restaurant or eat at home , thanks to the proposal of brand products “IO Pietro D'Agostino“. The name Kisté is a tribute to the Greek origins of Taormina and it makes reference to the presence of two ancient Greek tanks in the old Casa Cipolla, monument heritage-listed in 1939, a rare example of the late Renaissance Sicilian style in Taormina.
Kistê (from the greek) has been, therefore, a source of inspiration for Chef Pietro who wants to show his whole nutritional philosophy by creating a "box" of ingredients and flavors that made his cuisine renewed. Thus, at Kisté, and at La Capinera, he has made a careful selection of ingredients: the Etna nocellara olive oil, a white wine from Pantelleria (DOC) , 2 types of honey from Zafferana Etna and a pasta, the pacchero, made with Sicilian grains.
Sicilian top quality ingredients available with the brand "IO Pietro D'Agostino".
