We went to Scopello near Castellammare where the sea boulders look a lot like Capri's. It was lunch time and all appeared closed. We entered the baglio, or the courtyard that housed all the old dwellings and saw Il baglio a restaurant that was open. f course we let the owner, a pleasant woman decide the menu for us. It began with a caponata that she had just made. Fantastic. I had the couscous with fish - this is the way couscous is prepared in Sicily- while my wifew had the pasta alle vongole veraci, a clam sauce that is simplicity itself. The secondo was a dish of misto fritto that we shared. It was realy a delicious and unexpected lunch. I must return here this summer.
