A day out

A wonderful place in the country near Pollina, a farm holidays called La manna della zabbra, in the Madonie mountains in Sicily, where you can breath fresh air and enjoy the sun shining in the blue sky, offers you an exquisite, fine dinner based on Sicilian tastes and flavours mixed to the international cuisine. The chef is proud of his creativity and asks the customers about his new cooking style. But the place is particularly interesting for the many ash-trees from which you can take the manna, a natural sweetener, typical of this countryside. There is also a small firm for the preparation and conservation of natural products from biological cultivation like dried vegetables, vegetable and fruit pureès and, of course, the manna in tiny sacks for laxative use.
