Capo runs along Via Carini and Via Beati Paoli, north of Quattro Canti. A working daytime market for produce, fish, butchery, spice, with classic Palermo street-food stalls trading through the afternoon: pannulino panini stuffed with what the market had, frittola (the offcuts of pig fried in lard), and arancine if a vendor still has them. The market closes by 7–8 p.m., so Capo is a daytime destination. For after-dark stigghiola and the actual night street-food scene, head to <strong>Ballarò</strong> (the evening stigghiola market) or <strong>Vucciria</strong>, which stays active deep into the night.
