Dining in Paradiso



About an hour drive from Palermo is the stunning mountain top town of Cefalù. Extremely narrow streets are lined with porcelain shops and trattorie. A single car pins all promenaders to the storefronts. This city, thought to have been first settled by the ancient Greeks, projects out into the bright blue Tyrrhenian Sea. There are numerous restaurants along Via Carlo Ortolani di Bordonaro that seat customers along the water. I dined at ristorante Al Porticciolo; it is a safe bet for anyone hungry for outandingly fresh fish, a nice wine, and a heavenly view.
