(36)

Is food sacred itself or is it the way we interact with food? Or both maybe?

“Sacred Food” is an invitation to explore these enquiries together, to look at food through a lens of reverence and appreciation, to dive deep into our relationship with food, and take responsibility for ourselves and the environment. In an era where there is much disconnection between the food products we consume and ho

w these are produced, Sacred Food seeks to connect the dots and reconnect people to the process of food. We know from experience that when the connection is made, a natural respect and appreciation is reignited within us all. We then make different choices that are more aligned with our intuition and mother nature. We offer tailored retreat catering worldwide including vegan, vegetarian, raw vegan, macrobiotic, keto, pescatarian, flexitarian, gluten free, sugar free & allergen friendly. We would describe the food we serve as balanced, healthy, vibrant and wholesome with an international flavour profile. If you have any queries or requests, please don't hesitate to send us a message.

One last pizza at THE BEST pizzeria in Labin, just before leaving Croatia again.

THANK YOU 🙏🏽
It has been an amazing summer!!!
We enjoyed it really a lot, and we hope it was the same for all of you 🌈

Now it’s time to get back to work!

Next retreat: Netherlands, 21-27 September 2024
I’m coming!

Back in the days, when Sacred Food was incapsulated in an jar, and delivered to your door on a weekly basis…

Much love to all the sacred foodies around the island of Gozo ❤️
We miss YOU 🙏🏽

So what makes the difference between one experience and the other?
We saw each other, and we helped each other to see ourselves too.
We looked at each others as human beings, with our ideas and dreams, on a mission to truly support other people out there.
And we liked what we found. So we decided to stick together, knowing that when we come together we’re actually CO-CREATING a space for true rebirth.

20/07/2024

I’ve been working beautifully with people for several retreats, and suddenly never heard from them again, only to find out that they simply chose to support a friend new to the retreat market.

I’ve been working with people that felt OFF from the very beginning, and yet I chose to peruse the path of money, only to learn the lesson the hard way.

And I’ve been working with people that became true friends, sometimes my best friends. People with whom I deepen the human connection, I feel inspired by, and I like to spend time with.

20/07/2024

When you understand that you’re not just working FOR someone; and on the other side they understand that you’re not JUST cooking food; that’s when we create the space where we can really meet each other.

20/07/2024

Along the years I’ve been working with many different people, and I can tell you that the one thing needed in that relationship is called “HUMAN CONNECTION”⚡️

20/07/2024

There’re many elements that can impact your retreat journey as a chef.
Yes, there’s the venue 🏡
Yes, there’s the kitchen and its tools 🍴
Yes, there’s the grocery shop availability 🥑
And the amount of people you’re gonna cook for, which determines the amount of hours you’re gonna be working. If you have someone helping and supporting. How many days, and how many meals per day. Desserts everyday; allergies; intolerances; dietary restrictions. Many factors that can make your job more or less complicated… 👩🏼‍🍳

But I can assure you that the most- absolutely the most- relevant aspect is the relationship with the person you’re working with. That’s the one thing that is really gonna make THE difference 🫱🏽‍🫲🏾

Not all retreats are great experiences.

Last night MEXICAN DINNER was HOT! But it was also soooo good! 🤤 🤤 🤤

• Homemade buckwheat wraps
• Panfry tofu previously marinated in soy sauce and fresh BBQ herbs
• Mushrooms (bought for an incredible cheap price)
• Salad and slices of cucumber to refresh the tastebuds
• Homemade guacamoleeeee
• Homemade sour sauce
• Jalapeñosssss 🥵
• Hot sauce 🔥
• Sweeeeet corn
• Grated cheddar cheese

The Jalapeños came back to visit this morning, but God… it was worth it! 🤪
Making your own wraps, playing with colours, eating with hands = having fun!

Ps: no rice, no beans = no starch, no 💨

What a fabulous dinner we had at in Labin!

Here “km 0” is not just a concept: everything comes from the neighbourhood!

From the olive oil to the tonic water…
Just EPIC!!!

We ordered:
- A couple of Spritz to start
- Poached shrimps, red onion cream with blueberry
- Pljukanci with tuna, spicy dried tomatoes pesto
- Adriatic squid and Kvarner bay langoustine, green peas cream, fennel tempura
- Flying goat gin tonic
- And a dessert whose name I didn’t write down 😅 but you’ll see it in the next post 😉

Falling in love with Croatia with every bite!

Ps: Jack’s face tells you how good the food was…

Have you ever visited Croatia?

✅ Another lovely place to check in Zagreb: MELT

We stopped here for a brunch after visiting the Museum of Broken Relationships (which is totally worth it!), and we were very happy!

On the menu there are super nice options, also vegetarian and vegan. And with my great surprise, when I asked for Gluten Free bread, the waiter told us “here everything is Gluten Free!” 😃

Since the end of January this year I’ve eliminated gluten from my diet, and I’ve been feeling much better in my body, clear in my mind, and overall more energetic during the day. But this is not a regimen! Sometimes I still enjoy a pizza, a croissant, or a nice plate of pasta 😜

And the smoothie I chose… OMG! It tasted like a fresh liquid chocolate cake in my mouth 🤤 Healthy and yummy 😍 👌🏼

If you’d love to have a nice and satisfying meal in a very sweet environment, pay a visit to Melt: you’re gonna LOVE IT!

Visiting Zagreb over the past weekend, we ended up in a very curious café…

The handle of the entrance door definitely captured our attention, plus a sign outside declaring “best coffee shop in Zagreb”. We understood each other with a glance, and we walked in.

Eli’s Caffe.

Not much going on inside; a dim light; a couple of men having their morning coffee & newspaper; a small menu on the board, just over the coffee machine.
The back room (supposing the one for tables and chairs) is a little bit weird: a shop coat hanger with some empty hangers, just sitting there. Impossible to use the toilet “because the cleaner didn’t come yet”. It almost felt like if this place wasn’t supposed to be open.
And yet it was…

Thank God, because Eli’s coffee is REALLY GOOD!
We both had a soy cappuccino, which was super creamy ☕️ 😋

Their motto makes sense: NO LOGO/JUST TASTE
If you end up in Zagreb, pay Eli a visit, enjoy their coffee and the beautiful quirkiness of life😉

𝐈𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞…

…to come back from a retreat and have so much pain in my hands. Purple fingertips; swollen skin; loss of the sense of touch. No soap nor oil could help me removing my rings. Needed to keep my hands away from warmth. Couldn’t even hold a knife.

For some reason this last retreat in the Netherlands was particularly tiring. On day 3 I spent 13h standing and working: I literally never stopped. And I remember that when I touched the bed in the evening, I cried. My body cried out of tiredness and gratitude for finally pausing.

Yet there’s something magical that happens when I’m in service for greater transformation: an energy that somehow makes me keep going.
Here it is:

“𝘓𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘢! 𝘐 𝘥𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘢 𝘣𝘢𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘧𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘱𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘸 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴. 𝘚𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘐 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬, 𝘐 𝘢𝘮 𝘴𝘰 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘧𝘧 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 𝘴𝘰 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴.

Next retreat is coming up soon, and it will bring Sacred Food back to Gozo (Malta) after very long time! 👀

I look forward to land on the island that gave so much to me not only from a business standpoint, but also on a personal and relational level! 🌈

With the occasion, I’ll participate to the first ever THRIVE GARDEN FESTIVAL in Malta, and I’m super excited about it!
A sustainable festival that aims to bring people together through nature, offering a mix of different experiences like permaculture knowledge-sharing; herbalism; foraging; deep ecology; Temazcal; ice bath; camping; breathwork; organic psy-trance music; hot tub; NIA, and dance of course!

I really hope to meet some Sacred Foodies there!!

See you soon 🫶🌻

Back in the days, when we were dealing gold around the amazing island of Gozo 😜✨🫶

Everything has changed sooo much since SF Deliveries are not on our life anymore…

How are you doing today: feeling ⬆️ or ⬇️ ?

I like to cater for transformational retreats where people really get the opportunity to go within and do the work that no one taught us to do.

I like to see the real shift taking place in each and every single one of us, including the facilitators, as we all take part of the journey, and we all have shadows that need to be brought into the light.

I love to dive deep into myself, uncover the hidden truths of my heart, and embody my values from a new learning point of view.

Today is day 7 of the retreat in Netherlands.
This is how it ended, in celebration!

DAY 6
Netherlands

People kept asking me the secret ingredient of my amazing vegan chocolate mousse.

So I told them: chickpeas. Would you believe that?!
That’s why I named it Chocolate (hum)Mousse 😜

Would you try it?

Vegetarian Pad Thai:
- freshly made tamarind sauce
- jackfruit

Served with Thai salad:
- red cabbage

Bon appetite!

Yesterday a friend asked me with curiosity and admiration, “how do you manage to be a nomad?”.
Whilst my mum told me, “please, stop somewhere, this is tiring!”.
Different perspectives on the same thing… I love that!

What I answered to my friend is that the biggest gift that comes from this nomadic lifestyle is to get to know myself deeper and deeper. To face my beliefs, limitations and fears. To recognise I can do everything, I can adapt to anything, and I can dance with Life to the extent I feel comfortable with, and beyond too when needed.

An example are nights spent at the airport 😅
Definitely not the most comfortable ones; if I’m lucky, maybe I manage to sleep for a couple of hours. Otherwise I smile, and surrender to the flow…

What’s the best part of being a for you?

26/02/2024

How many chances there are, to go twice to the same restaurant, order the same food, and have the same experience?
I’d say “very low”, unfortunately.
And I think it’s for one main reasons:

>>> the first time is always unrepeatable, that’s why it’s also unforgettable!

I went to this restaurant in Lagos, and I’ve ordered a Pad Thai and a dessert called Dragon Ball. Both were so so so delicious, especially the dessert (you see it in the picture)!

So when I went there the second time, I’ve decided to order the same things, trying to repeat that first experience, but with my big surprise nothing was quite the same. Nothing hit my tastebuds in the same way. Which made the experience a bit disappointing.
And I can’t believe that it was just because someone else cooked my meal this time…

I rather be romantic, and think that first times are always unrepeatable: first kiss; first time you make love; first time you eat ice-cream; first time you eat a Dragon Ball…

Whether that’s today or tomorrow, enjoy your first time: it will leave a memory in your body forever!
