A Sicilian town renowned for its Albanian heritage, Byzantine Rite Catholic Church, and picturesque mountain-lake setting near Palermo.
Tips from the community
I strongly encourage you not to tell a Sicilian that you’ve had a cannoli in other countries, not even in the north of Italy. In case you do, many of them will ask you things like “Was it filled with custard cream instead of our sheep ricotta cream?” or “So, you haven’t really tried a cannoli, have you?. Don’t take it to heart, as Sicilians are really proud of this dessert. Where to try it? We recommend the San Lorenzo Mercato in Palermo and the small village of Piana degli Albanesi.
