Informal, understated yet sophisticated, Safina's dining room looks onto the Golfo del Pevero and the glittering lights of the yachts riding at anchor off the Cala di Volpe. And of course, the illuminated green of one of the world's most famous golf club because Il Safina is located in right in the Pevero's clubhouse, one of the most spectacular viewpoints in all of Smeralda.

Filippo La Mantia is one of Italy's hottest celebrity chefs of the moment. A man who turned cooking into a personal art, using zingy orange and lemon instead of garlic and onion. The Palermo-born wizard no longer bases his recipes on sautéed garlic an onions but has replaced them in both his sweet and savory dishes with the very finest local herbs, fruit and nuts, basil, mint, dill, capers, oregano, cinnamon, almonds and pine nuts.

The Menu that La Mantia has created for Il Safina is a veritable culinary tour of Sicily and Sardinia, both renowned for their sublime natural ingredients - ingredients he puts to highly original use. La Mantia's recipes hark back to tradition in its simplest and most genuine terms: couscous and greens, meat or fish and aubergine caponata are two of his star dishes.
