Louis Vuitton conquers Taormina with a new sky bar

This year Louis Vuitton confirms its presence in Taormina with the opening of the sky bar called "Le Bar Louis Vuitton". A new multifunctional address that includes pop ups, culinary experiences and takeovers on the beach with blue and white hues that recall the traditional Sicilian majolica. The menu is curated by the executive chef of the Grand Hotel Timeo, A Belmond Hotel, Roberto Toro with delicacies from the regional tradition - for example local arancini, Favignana tuna tartare, oysters and fine caviar - revisited in a contemporary key and accompanied by a list of eight signature cocktails created by Claudio Adelfio , Bar Manager of the Grand Hotel Timeo, including the Belvedere.

The rooftop terrace of the historic building that houses the Louis Vuitton store combines Louis Vuitton's unmistakable edgy aesthetic with the distinctive features of Sicilian tradition. The entrance features a wallpaper of real shells and the Anemona table in blue leather from the Objets Nomades collection . Tables in lava stone enameled in blue glass, seats in wood and rope, lamps in straw and metal and local plants. The setting also follows the same path. The tables are enriched by the Art de la Table service in Limoges porcelain and Twist glasses in Murano glass.
