The beating heart of the city beats on the pavement in piatra of the sidewalks of the Cassaro, today Corso Vittorio Emanuele ... there you can find everything from the typical restaurant, to the enoteca chic, the bistro, the street food stalls, and not just stalls; not to mention the bookshops, the local craft shops, or those who have done so much research in the clothing market, fabrics and accessories to be invented of the new laboratories that know everything except the banal store.
Old and new shops coexist within this world, crazy mix between ancient and modern, between old and new traditions, between contradictions of a Sicily that tries to open itself to the world while remaining faithful to itself.
