There is nothing like pizza in Italy. This place...
There is nothing like pizza in Italy. This place is located near the beach in Marina de Modica and it is so much fun to just sit and hang out. Grab a fresh Italian beer on tap and watch the people walking up and down the street to and from the beach.
Lina one of the owners makes some amazing mussels. You will get fresh black mussels steamed to perfection in a spicy red sauce. Get some fresh Italian bread too to soak up the sauce. This is one of my favorite dishes on the menu besides the pizza.
My family is from Sicily and I've been coming here for my whole life. This pizza place use to have a disco in back and I remember coming here in the evening to dance all night. The disco is no longer open but the space is still there. I had told the owners I want to come back and open it up. My wife loves the idea but I don't think she's ready for that part of our movie life yet. It would be fun but a lot of work.
So when you travel to Sicily in the summer you must head here for some pizza in Marina de Modica. This sleepy little town explodes with a population boom but in the winter you'll be lucky to find 20 people. Sicilians don't go to the beach in the winter even thought the weather is mild.
