"Chef Patrizia Di Benedetto of one-Michelin-starred modern Mediterranean restaurant Bye Bye Blues holds the accolade of being the first and only female chef to helm a Michelin-starred restaurant in Sicily over the past seven years. The young couple bought over a little-known pub near Mondello beach and converted it into a popular pub. A year after they started Bye Bye Blues, the head chef quit and she stepped in to help to cook. However, she ended up quitting her job and has been taking charge of the kitchen for more than two decades, transforming the bar into a full-fledged restaurant that centres on modern Mediterranean cuisine. Popular dishes at Bye Bye Blues include squid ink cavatelli, tomato sorbet with burrata, Mazzara red prawn carpaccio, and watermelon jelly with jasmine flower curd and cheese. Bye Bye Blues received one Michelin star in 2010." - Kenneth Goh
