🌸 Dolce & Gabbana has its own bar in Taormina 😮‍💨🍸

Did you know this? I didn’t — and when I found out, I immediately had to look it up.

It’s called Mocambo Bar, and it’s in Piazza IX Aprile, that dreamy square with a view of the sea and Mount Etna. ✨
Originally opened in the 1950s, during that glamorous Mediterranean postwar era, and in 2024, Dolce & Gabbana bought it and gave it a full transformation 💫.

The place is inspired by the carretto siciliano —that traditional Sicilian cart decorated with vibrant colors and details— mixed with D&G’s signature maximalism. And yes… it’s also a boutique!
Inside, you'll find a curated selection of clothes, jewelry and accessories by the brand.

Fun fact: Domenico Dolce was born in Polizzi Generosa, a Sicilian town. So this isn’t just another business move — it’s a tribute to his roots 🖤.

And if you love people watching as much as I do 👀, you’ll love it.
