Sicilian Evening , Friday 25th March

In so many ways Sicily is a microcosm of Italy.

It has volcanoes, mountains and beaches, together with ancient cities

containing a wealth of historical architecture. Its volcanic soils and

sub-tropical climate nurture an abundance of oranges, lemons,

almonds, olives and grapes, and the surrounding Mediterranean

is rich in seafood.
