Food and eating in Sicily
Here in Sicily it's all about food and eating. If you don't like the food here you won't like it anywhere! The eating hours are from 1PM to 3PM and 20PM till midnight (or even later). Don't get hungry any other time because all the restaurants are closed. Of course in bars and cafeterias you can find always something.
