Around the Etna with the Old "littorina"

The Circumetnea railroad was built in Sicily between 1895 and 1898, to connect Catania and Riposto by going around Mount Etna. Novelist Edmondo De Amicis probably described it best in his “Memories of a Sicilian Journey”, after he travelled

the 111 kilometers by train in the early 1900s. 

Social eating in Sicilia?

La grande tradizione culinaria della Sicilia, accompagnata dall'innata ospitalità, si sposa con la nuova tendenza del  web 2.0, il social eating. Di cosa si tratta? Ci si registra ad un “social network del gusto” ( Gnammo, suppershare, people cooks, New Gusto, eatwith..) per organizzare cene-eventi a casa propria per sconosciuti: elabori un menù, scegli la data, fissi il prezzo ed aspetti le prenotazioni.

Sicilian granita, The sicilian traditional breakfast

SICILIAN GRANITA 

"If you have never been to Sicily, you have never had granita. Granita is Italian ice, but it is nothing like the Italian ice you find here in America. They are completely different, from the taste to the consistency. Some of my fondest memories of my visits to Sicily are of sitting in the café in the morning and having a Granita di Limone and brioche for breakfast. That?s right I said for breakfast. In the summer in Sicily, granita and gelato are breakfast foods. That’s what I call paradise!
