Great accomodation.
Pretty central, not far off the main street (Via Roma).
This was a very comfortable place to stay, with lots of space. It would be great for 3-4 people.
Amazing mattress.
Love how much light this place gets.
We did have this odd issue with the electricity continually cutting out whenever we tried to do something. The host sent an electrician around after we left, so hopefully it's all fixed now.
I would try to find somewhere cheaper next time.
Casa Stagnitta
Café
BIGA Genio e Farina
Pizza Restaurant
On the Via Maqueda.
My favourite pizza place in Sicily.
How it works
It's a really popular place, but it's well run.
- Join the line at the door (don't try to grab a table)
- Pick your slices and pay
- Get directed to a table
- Pizza comes to you!
Osteria Lo Bianco
Restaurant
One of my favourite restaurants ever. Love the colours of the menu.
First time trying sicilian dishes.
We had a range of different starters, which were all delicious.
Absolutely love the caponata. Who knew aubergine could taste so good?! I think it's the sweet and sour sauce that does it for me ("agrodolce").
I had the Pasta alla Carrettiera. I would try the Pasta alla Norma next time.
FUD
Hamburger Restaurant
Terzo Cerchio Gelateria
Ice Cream
This was the closest gelateria near the Teatro Massimo.
First time seeing ice cream served in a bread roll (brioche). What an idea!
