On the programme

Palermo’s and Sicily’s gastronomic traditions are widely celebrated. With so many unique flavors and local specialties to discover, it can sometimes be difficult to know where to start and what to choose. That’s why we created this Palermo food tour: to offer an authentic overview of the city’s culinary culture through a variety of carefully selected tastings that showcase the true flavors of the region.

 

POSSIBLE TASTINGS:

 

  • Panino with panelle and crocchè - the beating heart of Palermo’s street food is a sesame bread stuffed with mashed potatoes “balls” or with chickpeas omelette.
  • Panino ca meuza - If you're a true experimenter and you're not afraid of strong tastes, then you can try this sandwich filled with boiled spleen pieces and fried in lard. A real connoisseur sandwich!
  • Sfincione - made with a pizza-like dough covered with fresh tomato salsa, anchovies paste, capers and onion. Sfincione is the super tasty idea of pizza from Palermo!
  • Rice arancina - famous all around the world this rice ball is filled with different ingredients (meat, smoked ham, spinach, mixed cheeses and so much more) and then deep fried according to centuries-long tradition.
  • Sicilian cannoli - the waffle, traditionally shaped around a hot metallic bar, filled with a sweet and creamy paste made with ricotta cheese, candied fruit, crunchy pistachios from the country surrounding the city or dark chocolate drops. A colourful as well as a sweet explosion of taste! You can find the recipe here.
  • Sicilian granita - it's perfect for chilling in a warm summer afternoon. It is served in a glass and it is meant for concluding in a great way a rich meal. Fresh fruit, sugar and ice are its simple ingredients but the taste is incredible by itself… Imagine it topped with coffee, chocolate or fruit!
