    Finally you've got to know Modica's chocolate.
    It's unique; a bit grainy, lightly sugary, so distinctive and delicious. 👏

    This is the biggest problem when you visit Sicily. People always think that in Sicily, there are 30 or 40 degrees (celsius) during all the year. This is not true. In Winter (and the last part of Autumn) here it's cold, also because, it's very humid!
