Hala says
A modern-traditional trattoria on Piazza Turi Ferro, near the opera. Stanley Tucci-approved for Searching for Italy.
'Cumpari' is Sicilian for close friend; Turiddu is short for Salvatore. The whole pitch is feeling like you're at a friend's house, with the chef cooking out of an open kitchen. The kitchen cooks to the season and publishes no fixed menu. Excellent natural wine list. €40–55 per head. Book a day ahead.
