Even though Palermo is a mecca for street food, it would be a shame to leave without trying pasta, so I looked for a local trattoria. By the way, a trattoria is a restaurant of a lower level than a restaurant.
It was a trattoria with an unpretentious atmosphere reminiscent of a restaurant with a set meal, and I felt like it would serve warm, home-cooked meals. There were many elderly customers who came alone, but the aura seemed to be that of regular locals.
I searched TripAdvisor for popular menus and ordered at least one from Antipasti, Prime, and Secondi. I also ordered beer and white wine, but the total cost was only 27 euros.
The Antipasti and Caponata were more moist overall than the eggplant I had at Quattro Quantie Salumeria the day before, as they had more moisture. It reminded me of ratatouille, but it felt refreshing.
I tried two new-looking pastas at Prime, and the mackerel pasta was overwhelmingly delicious. The mackerel pasta comes with toasted breadcrumbs and cheese, so you can sprinkle them on to your taste.
I remember the pasta costing about 5 euros per plate, so the noodles were dried noodles, not fresh noodles. Even if you used fresh noodles, the taste of the mackerel would not go well with it.
If you mix the noodles well with the dried mackerel, the noodles will mix with the water and the savory taste will be absorbed into the noodles, and it will be savory like a stew. The slight fishy smell was completely covered by the breadcrumbs and cheese.
The other pasta had boiled potatoes and a little cooked pork on it, and I just sprinkled some cheese on it. It didn't have any special sauce, so it looked plain, but the starch from the potatoes made a nice sauce.
In fact, it's hard to call potato starch a complete sauce, but the subtle sweetness of the potatoes did penetrate the noodles. However, it was too light and heavy, so I had to sprinkle a lot of cheese to make it taste better.
Secondero chose grilled sea bream because he was more attracted to seafood than meat, and like Italy, he grilled it with generous amounts of olive oil. The sea bream was large, and as you can see from the color of its skin, it was cooked very well.
The skin had a perfect crispy texture and salty taste, and the thick white flesh was moist from head to toe. The olive oil added a lot of flavor to it, and its presence was distinct.

Trattoria da Pino resists gentrification with popular superiority and delicacies. The true atmosphere of a trattoria like those of the past, where everyone meets, from workers from Palermo on their lunch break to foreigners who travel the world to regenerate their senses in this authentic corner of genuineness. The menu is narrated by the legendary Giuseppe, third-generation heir of Pino and guardian of the secrets of the cuisine of the past. A person who has been practicing this job with passion and dedication for decades, and this energy is palpable: you can see it, feel it and taste it. At the trattoria Da Pino the experience is not only culinary, but it is sensorial, human. Because good food is connection, it is sharing. And Da Pino, it is at home.

Si quieres sumergirte en una auténtica trattoria siciliana del pasado, si quieres compartir la mesa (y el ambiente) con la gente real de Palermo, si quieres comer buena cocina local (gastando muy poco)... es difícil encontrar algo mejor que esta auténtica e histórica trattoria. ¡Tienes que probarlo!
P. S. Llega temprano o haz una reserva si quieres evitar esperar en la fila.
Table simple sympathique. Le menu égrené lentement en italien par le patron est très marin. Choisi des involtini de sardine, puis des calamars frits. Voir photos. Avec une carafe de vin de la maison et un café, le prix reste très raisonnable pour Palerme. J'y reviendrai.
