Sicily's Mediterranean weather brings hot, dry conditions through the summer and milder, wetter spells in winter, with June to September the busiest window for travellers. Cooking on the island leans on seafood, handmade pasta, olive oil and local wines, and a greengrocer fits naturally into that market culture. Travellers reach Sicily by plane, ferry or hydrofoil from the Italian mainland, so the journey onto the island is well covered. Italian is the everyday language, and a few words help in shops and markets. For a first-time visitor, Mercatone della Frutta offers a direct look at how local produce is sold on the island.
