I tried the arancini and they were average, in my opinion on the market in Palermo there were tastier arancini than those. I was disappointed by one of the staff members (a blonde lady aged above 40) - she visibly was not happy that I asked for a bag to carry my food in (I ordered food to go), another staff member (a brunette girl in her 20s) gave me a bag and her older colleague made a comment (in Italian, so that I cannot understand) in front of me, telling her she doesn'thave to give me a bag, because I ordered only arancini.
