+39 334 8854473Dear tourists, you've arrived in the magnificent city of Palermo, a place where art, history, and gastronomy blend to create a unique experience. And as you explore this city's beauties, you can't miss the opportunity to delight your palate with the treasures of Sicilian cuisine. Here's a guide to discovering what to eat in Palermo:
Arancini are a Sicilian specialty loved around the world. These stuffed and fried rice balls are often filled with ragù, mozzarella, and peas. They're ideal as a snack or a quick lunch. The best places to eat arancini in Palermo are just steps from B&B Delle Vittorie and KePalle .
For adventurous eaters, "pane con la milza" (bread with spleen) is a local delicacy. It's a sandwich filled with spleen (veal honey), cooked in lamb fat and seasoned with salt and pepper. It's a specialty rooted in traditional Palermo cuisine. Just steps from the B&B Delle Vittorie, you can enjoy it at " Antica Focacceria di San Francesco " or "Nino U Ballerino," the latter of which received a 2017 Gambero Rosso award for its street food.
Sicilian cannoli are a traditional Sicilian dessert, famous throughout the world. They are crispy, tube-shaped wafers made from fried dough and filled with a sweet sheep's ricotta cream. The ricotta is often enriched with sugar, vanilla, and sometimes with chocolate chips or candied fruit.
The outer shell is light and crispy, while the filling is soft and creamy, creating a perfect contrast. Cannoli can be decorated with candied orange peel, chopped pistachios, or candied cherries at the ends. Originally prepared during Carnival, cannoli are now enjoyed year-round.
Savor the freshness of caponata, a side dish of eggplant, celery, tomatoes, olives, and capers cooked in an irresistible sauce. A dish that speaks to the history and passion of Sicilian cuisine. Just steps from the B&B Delle Vittorie, you can enjoy caponata at the " Trattoria Ferro di Cavallo " or the "Antica Focacceria di San Francesco," or at the Ballarò market.
For dessert, you can't miss the Sicilian cassata. This delicious cake is covered in sugar icing and decorated with candied fruit. It's an explosion of flavors and colors.
This dish is a perfect example of culinary fusion in Palermo. Pasta con le sarde is a pasta dish topped with a sauce made with fresh sardines, pine nuts, raisins, and wild fennel. A blend of flavors that will make you fall in love with Sicilian cuisine.
Given Palermo's coastal location, fresh seafood is always available. Try dishes like the mixed grill or seafood pasta to savor the freshness of the Mediterranean.
For breakfast or a snack, enjoy a traditional Sicilian granita, often accompanied by a brioche. Flavors like lemon, almond, or coffee are particularly popular.
Explore local markets and streets to sample Palermo's renowned street food. Panelle (chickpea fritters), crocchè (potato balls), and sfincione (Sicilian pizza) are just a few of the delicious options available, offering an authentic taste of street life and local flavors.
