Sicily: Italy’s jewel, from foodie hubs to the coastline
Sicily: Italy’s moreish island, from food hubs to the coast, by Jamie Douglass The history of Anglo-Sicilian relations is long, amicable, and has much to do with wine.

The historic harbour town with scenic walking routes and a buzzing food festival
