Gabriela D'Amico

I was born on 23.03.1970 in Sicily and grew up in Milan. During my young years I was allowed to experience and learn from my mother the traditional Italian cuisine first hand!
I met my husband three decades ago and we decided to emigrate to Germany.
I am a mother of 3 children and a wife, after we came to Germany I started to work in an Italian restaurant.
After 15 years I decided to make my dream (Desiderio in Italian) come true and opened my own restaurant! Because I love to cook for people and give them pleasure!

The cuisine of Mama Gabriela, a traditional cuisine prepared with love and passion.

Tiramisù is an Italian dessert that has become a classic all over the world. It consists of ladyfingers soaked in espresso and topped with a creamy mascarpone mixture. The top layer is usually sprinkled with cocoa powder or chocolate chips. Espresso helps to bring out the flavor of the other ingredients and adds a pleasant bitterness to the dessert. Our Tiramisù is homemade, it is a secret family recipe, this gives the dessert a unique taste, both sweet and savory.
