A horribly yummy post!

Indeed, it has inspired me to mix food with politics.

Ever wondered what Berlusconi’s fave food is??;-)

All the best,

Alex

Well I hadn’t, but now I’m wondering if it might have something to do with beef….

How I miss living in Sicily and getting to eat the divine food when ever I want! You must go back in the summer months and have a granita…there is no place like Sicily to have one and if you say you HAVE had one then you have not unless it is Sicilian!

Ciao! Che splendido suggerimento, io purtroppo non conosco ancora Palermo! Devo rimediare

Mmmm…I think I’d skip the spleen and go straight for the dessert, quite frankly. Maybe several of them.

That’s the problem with a dessert cart that looks that good: picking just one thing.

Dessert carts have to be one of the most ingenious marketing techniques ever. Even when you’re thinking you don’t have room, you look over and see six or so things you *know* you could make room for…genius.

I love making “Pasta alla Norma”! Yum! Looks delicious. Really pretty picture of the focacceria’s exterior, too.

The way we make Pasta alla Norma in this house is quite different from the “real” one we had in Sicily, but eggplants are always delicious IMHO

I have to go back and read about your trip to Sicily. I missed out on that adventure, and with Cherrye nonetheless.
I like the looks of the *sampler*.
I am such a “doggie bag” lover.

I totally agree with Giulia! The Sicilian Sampler looks amazing! Wish I was there. Lulu's last blog post..Remembering Anne Frank I loved that they had that on the menu--perfect tourist dish!

Fab review. I love the combination of cultural travel pics and the decadent food pics. Very enjoyable and tempting.

Spleen sandwich? I am not sure I would be up for that…but the dessert looks luscious.

Marye, believe me, it wouldn’t be an every day choice for me either, but when in Palermo…. Thanks for stopping by!
