Sabrina was a super host! She gave to my husband & I a warm welcome and spent time with us at our arrival. She adviced us to find out where is the best place to park our car, and we saw around the best shops: I do recommend The Market place for fresh food on the right to Porta Messina upstairs, and other places not to much crowded like Minotaure for pastries, same street down Via di Giovanni on right the Bambar best place to get granite with brioche the strawberry taste is just amazing, go down and down at the cross on right you have pasticceria Roberto for best dulce cannolo and on left for cheese La Bottega del Fromaggio just after Hotel Paradiso. My favorite restaurant was definitely El Duomo down to main street Corso Umberto in front of el Duomo di Tahormina, nice terrace and at the Guide Michelin every year! For a nice drink with beautiful Etna view you can go to fancy Hotel Timeo at the end of Via Teatro Greco a bit expensive but you'll love it! In a general way try to go to Tahormina in low season it should be too crowded by summer time.
