Bye Bye Blues In Palermo

11/10/2025: A place that exudes history, walls filled with photos of famous customers and cuisine from various eras. Small but beautiful, with just the right amount of discretion, perhaps even accustomed to a clientele that isn't just casual tourists. So, expectations were high, and we got off to a slow start, especially since it was our fourth day dining in Palermo. A sfincione for four to share was very good, followed by four first courses: tortellini in broth, busiate pasta with pistachio and shrimp, paccheri with pork ragù, and ravioli with tomato sauce filled with eggplant and smoked scamorza. Everything was very good, although the ravioloni were the highlight for us. Having resolved our reservations, we ordered a mixed boiled meat with saffron potatoes, pleasant and delicate in flavor—good, in fact, very good. Good value for money. A restaurant worth trying if you come to Sicily.

09/10/2025: You might be told that in Sicily, especially in Palermo, the food is good everywhere. But at Casa del Brodo, the food is truly delicious. The menu offers excellent suggestions. The dishes have flavors that enrich the palate, such as the eggplant rolls or fried red mullet. The dessert was a delight. The wine list is simple but offers good choices. The price is reasonable. A restaurant to recommend. Reservations are recommended.
