    Sicilian

    A family-run Sicilian restaurant in Genk holding a Michelin star, where the second generation has kept the kitchen and the cellar firmly in the family, with one brother cooking and the other pouring. The food leans into the flavors of Sicily without turning folkloric about it, and the room manages to feel genuinely warm rather than formally stiff. The wine list has a noted weakness for Nebbiolo, which is not the most obvious call for a Sicilian table, but nobody's complaining.

      “how about house-made agnolotti filled with cheese and paired with a rich smoked butter sauce, sage oil and four-year-old parmesan?”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
