Botanico Bar - Review - Kalsa - Palermo - The Infatuation

"Pull up a bench or the tiniest elementary school chair known to man and enjoy a cocktail at Botanico Bar, which you’ll find tucked away in an alley behind the Piazza Sant’Anna square in the historic center. It’s run by two Palermitan friends, and even with very little, they’ve turned it into one of the hottest spots in town. Most of the action happens outdoors where they offer table service, though you can also order from the bar counter and take your drink standing out front. The food menu includes small plates like house-made hummus, olives dressed with breadcrumbs, or an aperitivo box with focaccia, bruschetta, and savory puff pastries. They also do brunch on the weekends from April through September." - Linda Sarris
