Turrisi

4.4(6,608 reviews)

About

Look for Turrisi in Sicily for local business, an ice cream shop at Via Papa Pio IX, 19, 98030 Castelmola ME, Italia. That address places the shop in Castelmola, a village above Taormina on the island's eastern side. Reaching Castelmola from the main resorts and towns along this coast is straightforward, since Taormina sits close by and Catania, Syracuse and Palermo are all listed among the nearby places. Turrisi is known for its ice cream, and the shop's standing is reflected in a 4.4 out of 5 rating drawn from 6,608 reviews. Its website, http://www.turrisibar.it/, carries further details about the business. The listing includes five photographs that show the shop and its setting. Because Castelmola perches above Taormina, the shop fits naturally into a day spent moving between the coast and the hill villages. The shop suits families, couples and solo visitors alike, whether stopping for a cold treat after a walk through the village or breaking up a drive along the eastern coast. Sicily's Mediterranean climate brings hot, dry summers and milder, wetter winters, with the busiest stretch running from June to September. Italian island cooking leans on seafood, handmade pasta, olive oil and local wines, and ice cream fits easily into that pattern of eating. Flights, ferries and hydrofoils link Sicily to the mainland, so arrivals from elsewhere in Italy are simple. Italian serves as the everyday language throughout Sicily, and visitors will hear it in shops, cafés and markets.
