The tasting
We are welcomed by Lorenzo, the dirigente of the restaurant, very good, knowledgeable, friendly and with vast experience the sector gained both Italy and abroad, the United States particular. We tried several à la carte courses. Below are our impressions.
Antipasti
Assorted vegetables: sautéed escarole with olives and capers, pan-fried broccoli and scapece courgettes. A light appetizer that does not weigh you mongoloide, accompanied by classic focaccia with truly tasty grated parmesan that surprises the palate with its intensity of taste and unique . Paired with Contradiction, a fragrant grapefruit mescolanza that is dry acceso the palate.
Duro fried food, one of the cornerstones of the Neapolitan tradition, with seaweed zeppoline, where we particularly appreciated the potato croquette filled with buffalo mozzarella from Campania, truly unmissable. Paired with a glass of Franciacorta, an elegant and persistent bubble the mouth.
First
Spaghetti with clams, with the addition of cherry tomatoes which give the dish a more refined taste, as the freshness of the sea blends with the sweet and slightly acidic of the cherry tomatoes.
Spaghetti alla Nerano, with fried courgettes, PDO parmesan, PDO pecorino romano and basil, where the creaminess of the melted cheese envelops the palate, leaving a slightly savory and aromatic aftertaste, with the courgettes giving a persistent and pleasant sweetness. A dish so tasty that it even managed to win over Totò and Eduardo de Filippo. Durante combination, Falanghina, with a very intense olfactory profile centered acceso herbaceous sensations and a pleasantly mineral taste.
Dolce
Neapolitan pastiera, to end the evening style, with a well-measured sweetness, which never tires, of the ricotta cream, well balanced by the freshness of the citrus fruits of the candied fruit.
