Tips / Destination

The Italians are known for their amazing pizza — they created the stuff after all, and their expertise extends onto the island of Sicily. In fact, that’s where it might be the best. Here are the best places to go if you’re visiting the island.

 

Mounir Pizzeria & Kabab

Palermo has a plethora of pizza places to choose from, but Mounir is by far the favorite among locals and guests. They combine Italian tradition here with Turkish cuisine for a unique combination that’ll definitely tickle your taste buds. Be sure to give one of their pizza kebabs a try.

 

FUD – Catania

FUD is primarily known as a Sicilian burger joint, and Lord they are delicious, but they could just as easily be rolling in the dough by only serving their amazing pizza. The ingredients here are always fresh, the atmosphere homey and the beer homemade! Treat yourself to a burger, slice of pie and a good brew.

 

Pizzeria Blume – Syracuse

The wonderful thing about Pizzeria Blume is the chef is not afraid to experiment and customize your dish. In fact, he kind of encourages it. The crust is spectacularly cooked to perfection every time and the unassuming atmosphere makes the quality a bit of a pleasant surprise once you taste the food.

 

Rossopomodoro – Messina

If you like your pizza served loaded with cheese and sauce on a thick and delicious crust, you’ll want to check out Rossopomodor. Visitors notice right away the amount of toppings on each pizza is a little more than you might be used to, in true Italian style, and the variety is something out of this world. They also have an extensive list of appetizers to keep you satisfied while you wait for your pie.
