Cherry Festival with Caro Diario
Description
We’re beyond excited to welcome chef and food artist Zélikha Dinga (@carodiarioparis) to Casa Lawa for Cherry Festival, from 1–5 June 2027.
This is one of our favourite moments of the year: cherries ripening in the orchard, long lunches under the trees and the first feeling of summer in the air. Together with Zélikha, we’ll follow the fruit from branch to table, exploring cherries fresh, preserved and cooked, alongside herbs and the season’s first sun-ripened produce.
Expect a few days of making and tasting, poolside pauses, meals beneath the orchard trees and evenings that stretch into the Sicilian night. Zélikha’s playful approach to food and beautiful things will find its place in the Casa Lawa rhythm: generous, curious and made for sharing.
Tickets are available to book your accommodation both at Casa Lawa and at our off-site location, only 20 minutes away.
