SICILY..dining in 2023

I did make a mistake, in discussion of the fantastic dinners offered at IL PRINCIPE DI SALINA by Chef Silvana; they are 3 courses, plus dessert, not two. Last night the secondi was a fish I’ve never had before and we LOVED it…“Oratina,” in the sea bream family but with the most succulent white meat and an incredible texture… Stay tuned to see whether erica! will try to pack a few in ice and bring home to NYC!

Imagine loving a hotel so much, with the food being such a large part, that we have little impetus to go out and explore the island? Granted, partner is just about unable to walk and taxis are costly…and tonight, our last here, is PIZZA NIGHT!

I will try to post some pics of meals here once they show up on this laptop…

Weather once again looks a little dim, and I just read that Catania airport has been closed due to Etna eruptions…everyone is talking about how this May is so unlike previous Mays…as I said, almost no sun since Trapani, some rain, and always clouds. I seem to get up every hour or so to peek out and try to glimpse the view of red from Stromboli, just outside our window…
