About Bruschetta-Francesca
I arrived in the United States 25 years ago. After spending 4 years in Chicago and 17 in Texas, collaborating with a partner to open a new restaurant, I arrived in Key West and immediately fell in love with the place and its people. Here, I worked as a server bartender at the Waldorf Astoria Resort, but I’ve always had the desire to open my own restaurant featuring Italian cuisine and Sicilian specialties, particularly from Palermo, the city where I was born and raised. This dream came true during the COVID-19 pandemic. Initially, it was not easy, but in the end, everything turned out for the best.
I frequently travel to Palermo to visit my mother, who always shares new recipes with me that I recreate in my restaurant, achieving great success. Now, I have a complete menu, but I always introduce new dishes whenever I have the chance.
My mother is my source of inspiration and success. I owe a great deal to my friends and family for helping me realize my dream.
