The Michelin Guide's review
In the heart of Ibla, one of Italy’s most charming historic centres, Ciccio Sultano’s restaurant remains an unmissable stop for anyone wishing to discover the true soul of Sicily. Just a stone’s throw from the Cathedral of San Giorgio, in a classic and elegant setting, the hospitality is in the hands of a young and skilled team, capable of combining professionalism with warmth, also in their carefully curated wine list.With his deep knowledge of his homeland, Sultano has, over the years, developed a cuisine that has become a true labour of love for Sicily: a gastronomic narrative that interprets the island’s identity, heritage and future prospects, making him today an extraordinary international ambassador for Sicilian culture. In the restaurant’s intimate dining rooms, his cuisine comes to life with vigour and character, through dishes that combine technical skill, depth and a distinct regional influence.The ‘Stupor Mundi’ tasting menu, comprising eight courses, represents the most complete embodiment of his vision: a culinary journey capable of leaving a vivid and lasting impression, featuring intense flavours and refined compositions. As well as the set menus, there is also an à la carte option, allowing you to explore the menu at your leisure. Among the dishes, creations such as free-range lamb with Sicilian ‘mole’, grilled green beans and a vegetable jus combining flavours from the sea and the mountains stand out – a prime example of a cuisine that is at once distinctive, original and deeply evocative.
