Sesame Taverna
Close to the Hilton Imperial, Sesame occupies a romantic old stone house, with a row of orange trees out front and a vine-covered terrace up top. Highly regarded by locals, the owner-chef offers a contemporary take on Mediterranean cuisine, with dishes such as homemade ravioli stuffed with ricotta cheese and mint, soufflé of goat’s cheese and prosciutto, and gregada (fish stew). There’s a respectable wine list to match. The tavern is a 10-minute walk from Pile Gate outside the Old Town.
