Located on the Dome plaza with a beautiful view of the city, delicious pastries, ice cream (best one ever!) and espresso, and great service we went back there many many times.

This is where we pretty much had breakfast every day in Catania. Mainly because their cappuccino…read moreand pastries were to die for. We had sweet and savory pastries for breakfast. It was very delicious and cheap to boot. Service was a little spotty. But there wasn't any hurry. It is right in the main square, which I referred to as Elephant Duomo. I'm not sure what the locals call it. But perfect for people watching and enjoying the morning or sometimes afternoon for us.

I had the pistacchio granita with brioche. Compared to the granita I've had before, it was both…read morebetter and worse... I know that's a strange way to describe something, but let me explain. The first few bites were very good. The granita tasted a lot more homemade than the others I've had--rich, creamy, very very nutty (vs artificial flavoring)... and the brioche was fantastic--soft, slightly sweet, perfect. The bad: after the first few bites, the granita started to taste like nothing. I think the strong flavor dulled my tongue. I don't really know why, but let's just say it may be wise to share one granita with someone since you may not taste the second half. You don't need the whole thing for yourself, at least if your goal is flavor. Ironically, the other granita I've had elsewhere kept it's flavor--sweeter and more like a milky sorbet--but was less extraordinary. Bottom line: Bring a friend or lover and share!
