Staying on Vicolo Cappellieri means being in Palermo's gastronomic hub. No need to take public transportation or taxis: the city's best culinary experiences are right at your doorstep.
Street Food in Historic Markets
You can't say you've visited Palermo without trying the street food. Just a stone's throw from SJ Amuri you'll find the Vucciria: stop the street vendors for a bomb arancini, some panelle and hot crocchè or, for the more daring, a sandwich with spleen (you're welcome). If you are looking for a traditional day market atmosphere, the Boss It is located just behind the Teatro Massimo.
Typical trattorias and local cuisine
If you're looking for a traditional sit-down dinner, the area around Piazza San Domenico and Via Napoli is full of historic taverns. Order a pasta with sardines, the classic Sicilian caponata or swordfish rolls.
The perfect awakening at SJ Amuri
Although our apartment's kitchen is fully equipped with a coffee pod machine and kettle, in the morning you might want to try a true Palermo breakfast. Walk to Via Roma or to the historic cafés near the Teatro Massimo to enjoy an espresso cannolo or, in the summer, the legendary mulberry or almond granita accompanied by the classic brioche col tuppo.
