Ice Cream and Granite
This is the first ice cream shop of the “Bianca” franchise that is now spreaded on the entire city of Syracuse.
A “granita” and “brioche” for breakfast at Bianca’s is a must.
Tip: if you buy 1kg of ice cream to take away they will give you some waffle cones, biscuits and brioches for free.

Supermarkets
“Gusto” is a small but sophisticated high-quality Bio supermarket. There is also a small restaurant inside with meals prepared at the time.
It is located just few steps away from Gelone Suites, you just need to exit from the gallery of the building towards Via Del Colle Temenite and then turn left.

Ortigia Isle
A little fish restaurant by the sea in the heart of the old town.
Le Sette Spezie is a very small family managed restaurant. Reservation is a must because they have just few tables (tel. 0931 67800).
It’s not a fancy place but food is very good.

Onda Blu is a well stoked fish shop, but not just that: you can call them (tel. 0931 61733) and choose a fish based meal that they can prepare for you, so you can go and pick it up at an agreed time.
Or you can simply go there and have a seat in their restaurant.

A bivalent location.
During the daytime, "Zen" is a small beach with a wooden platform on the rocks and it is possible to order something at the attached restaurant and eat your meal directly on your sunbed.
At nighttime the "Zen" becomes the "Jonico Restaurant and Pizzeria": a very good restaurant with an amazing sea view. Usually in the evening there is a nice refreshing breeze that is very pleasant during summertime (tel. 0931 65540).
