• Couscous alla Trapanese – A Sicilian specialty made with semolina, fresh fish, and local vegetables.

• Pasta con le sarde – Pasta with fresh sardines, fennel, pine nuts, and raisins, a classic Sicilian dish.

• Caponata – A traditional sweet and sour eggplant dish often served as an appetizer.

• Marsala wine-braised beef – Tender beef slowly cooked in Marsala wine, a regional specialty.

• Sfincione – Sicilian-style thick pizza with tomato, onions, anchovies, and breadcrumbs.
