We had a fab small lunch of spicy dumplings at our favorite Thai food truck at the weekly market en route to the Centro Italia branch that is ever-so-slightly closer to where we are staying this summer, but still a 20 min scoot on my Vespa 
.
We’re already missing Italy & stocked up on a few Sicilian wines, Sicilian tomatoes, hot chili peppers in oil, marinated grilled zukes and peppers, a wonderfully creamy Bergamino di capra, a slab of Raschera, fennel salami, burrata, pistachio mortadella, stracciatella, pistachio pesto — the last 3 items in the hopes of recreating that fabulous sammich we had in Ortigia for our lunch tomorrow, and to look at the ginormous selection of Italian groceries.
Dinner was an easy but delightful Abendbrot with our favorite sourdough, assorted salumi e formaggi, the marinated veg, and a Greek-ish salad on the side with Sicilian tomatoes, local cukes, Greek feta, red shallots dressed with olive oil, s&p, and oregano.
