A good restaurant in Cefalu

Advantages: fresh food
Disadvantages: none

I have recently been in Cefalu. Below is the address and details of a restaurant I can recommend. Ristorante "Paradiso Club" Address: Via dei Mulini 18/20 - CEFALU' Tel. 0921-423900 - Fax. 0921-423990 They seem to have a very large selection of starters in this place. I had a fish salad, while my colleague had grilled aubergines togetehr with other grilled vegetables. Both dishes were very fresh. For the first meal, I had pasta with alici, ...
...ncasciata alla cifalutana, apparently the speciality of Cefalu. We then both had fish, sword fish myself and grilled fish my colleague. The waiters claimed everything in their restaurant is fresh of the dayand that fish is delivered or bought directly from fishermen. In my experience, this seems to be the case. We also had the house white wine, which was quite strong. Their wine list is good. We did not have time for dessert, but the table next ...

Taormina, Sicily

Advantages: historicaly interesting, prety town, great views
Disadvantages: long train journet from Palermo

Taormina is a very pretty town on the Eastern coast of Sicily. We took a very slow train journey from Palermo along the North coast, which took the best part of a day, having to change and wait in Messina. When you get to Taormina station you will find yourself at the bottom of the hill so you would need to hire a taxi or wait for a local bus to take you up to the town. The buses didn't seem too predictable but then we were arriving on a Sunday. ...
...more reliable. However, when you get up into the town you will realise that the journey is well worth it. Taormina is a very pretty historic town. Visit the amphitheatre for fantastic views of Mount Etna. A walk up a steep path behind the town affords more spectacular vies of Etna and the coast The town can basically be navigated from the main drag of shops and restaurants. Typically for Italy there is a vast range of prices. This can also be quite ...

In the shadow of Etna

Advantages: The Volcano, the food, the black beach
Disadvantages: the horse meat stall in the market (don't buy anything from a butchers with a cute photo of a horse outside!_

Catania lies on the eastern coast of Sicily and is, historically and culturally a part of the 'Greek' part of the Island (as opposed to the arabic West of Sicily). The most striking thing about the city is the constantly puffing, and frequently erupting volcano which colours (sometimes quite literally) the city in a magical manner. Some people don't have the temperament for Sicily, the cities here don't have the manicured edges of Tuscany or the ...
...of Italy. So Catania itself takes a little getting used to. It doesn't have the beauty of Syracuse and Palermo probably has more immediate attractions in it. It has a fine Sicilian Baroque architectural style, best seen around the Piazza del Duomo with it's famous elephant statue - the symbol of the city. This same said statue is carved from volcanic rock and, as I was cheerfully told on any number of occasions, was smashed by drunken Englishmen ...

Crossroads of the Mediterranean

Advantages: Cultural diversity, historical interest, weather, food
Disadvantages: Can be difficult to navigate!

...mediterranean competitors. Palermo as the capital of Sicily has come down a peg or two over the course of history, being, at one time the capital of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies before the Bourbons transferred themselves to Naples. But the vestiges of a regal past are very much evident in the old Sicilian capital. The most notable site being the Norman Palace at the gate of the Porta Nuova. It is possible to enter the palace to see the Royal Chapel ...
...main areas to see in Palermo are the Teatro Massimo, the wonderful opera house. It is very easy and cheap to buy tickets there in the opera season. i went to a ballet for four euros and an opera for five euros and even if you hate the art form, it is worth it to see the amazing interior and to sweep down the external staircase! The catacombs in Palermo are quite unique and very different from their Roman or Neapolitan counterparts! The monks in ...
