Via Alessandro Paternostro 58
One of Palermo's most historic street food institutions, dating to 1834, where Tucci tries pani câ meusa — a soft sesame roll stuffed with boiled and fried spleen, lungs, and caciocavallo cheese. The sandwich is a defining Palermitan street food experience and Tucci reacts with characteristic delight and mild alarm.
Pasticceria Cappello
Via Colonna Rotta 68
Tucci visits one of Palermo's most celebrated pastry shops, famous for its seven-layer chocolate torte (Setteveli), as well as traditional Sicilian cannoli filled fresh to order with sweetened ricotta. The pastry is considered a benchmark for Sicilian confectionery excellence.
