Relais Briuccia e Ristorante Capitolo Primo - Hotel in Sicily
Via Trieste 1, 92010 Montallegro, Agrigento
Sicily,
Italia
Husband-and-wife team Damiano and Adriana (chef and hostess respectively) returned to their hometown to open this highly regarded restaurant with rooms, set in a restored mansion in the centre of town.
The uniquely decorated bedrooms are on different floors, each with a sitting room. Breakfast is served in the bright atrium and includes fresh ricotta, local cheeses, prosciutto, fresh bread and pastries. Lunch is on request; dinner features tasting menus with an international twist, accompanied by a vast selection of Sicilian wines (a glass floor in reception gives you a peek into the cellar). Don't miss the chance to get cooking lessons from Damiano if you can.
Nearby is the untouched coastline of the Natural Reserve di Torre Salsa and the ruins of an ancient Greek village at Eraclea Minoa; the Valle dei Templi archaeological site is 30km away and Scala dei Turchi, a scenic rocky cliff with steps leading into the sea, is 18km.
