We travelled to Sicily just to eat at this patisserie/bar called Caffe Sicilia. It was worth two overnight trains, a three hour drive and the complications of rescheduling an extra day, they’re closed on Mondays, as we found out, the hard way.
L to R: Some sort of milk pudding, vanilla layered cake with hazlenuts and at the bottom, a Sicilian speciality, Cassata, an almond marzipan with cream filling, icing and candied fruit.
Strawberry and tomato granita.
Basil gelato.
The aftermath.
This was all in one sitting and everything pictured was eaten by me in one hour. I still feel sick but it was worth it.

It was a basil gelato but there’s pistachio gelato practically falling from the sky in Italy.
I’m definitely into the green pistacio ice cream
