( 8am-1pm Mon-Sat) Syracuse's produce market is near the harbour, where red-canopied
stalls overflow with piles of mussels, oysters, octopus and shellfish. You can also find
good bread and local pastries, vegetables and fruit - all perfect if you're self catering.

CLOTHING
( 093 16 45 74; www.untitled-trendwear.com ; Via Serafino Privitera 39; 10.30am-2.30pm & 4.30-8.30pm)
You could describe this boutique in a snippet: clothes to die for and prices to give you a
heart attack. But if you've got several hundred euros to spend on a beautifully crafted,
quality, simple and timeless garment, bag, shoes or hat, this is the place for you. It stocks
pieces by Italian and international designers.

ARTISANAL
( www.bellomogalleria.com ; Via Capodieci 15) Papyrus paper is the reason to come to this Ortygia
gallery near Fontana Aretusa. Here you'll find a range of papery products, including
greeting cards, bookmarks and writing paper, as well as a series of watercolour land-
scapes. Prices start at around €3 for a postcard, rising to hundreds of euros for original
works of art.
Massimo Izzo

( www.massimoizzo.com ; Piazza Archimede 25) The flamboyant jewellery of Messina-born Massimo
Izzo is not for the faint-hearted. Featuring bold idiosyncratic designs and made with
Sciacca coral, gold and precious stones, his handmade pieces are often inspired by themes
close to the Sicilian heart: the sea, theatre and classical antiquity.
