In Italy the lunch is the
“thing,” reposo is the other thing. Lunch
begins at about12:30 with reposo lasting until 4:30-5:00. During reposo everything is closed including
schools, Italians try to get home for lunch or pranzo so they can follow up
with a nap or rest. Then the second part of the day begins after reposo Usually 4:30 or 5:00 ish! An
Italian sandwich shop in Siracusa has perfected the art of making a sandwich. It has been featured on the late Anthony
Bourdain show and highlighted by trip advisor.
Follow the script of sandwich making and you will understand why!
