About this experience
We start with welcome taste, the right break is in front of a "tarallo 'nzogna e pepe" (lard and pepper), accompanied by a good glass of wine. Leaving behind Piazza Dante we are ready for the appetizer and can not be done without tasting the "frittatina 'e maccarun" (pasta omelette), crispy and succulent always on display inside the windows of the fryers. Walking through the lanes, you have to make space, and this time sitting and relaxing, to another product of Neapolitan cuisine, to be precise 'o Rraù (Naples' Ragù).
Resuming our route "not yet satiated", we will discover the symbol of our tradition of street food. From the Neapolitan "O' cuoppo" (paper casing), a container of small fried products of the ancient traditional Neapolitan cuisine, represented in many paintings and prints of the 1800's.
Our goodbye is with the inevitable dessert, the "sfogliatella", together with the "baba" and the "pastiera", one of the masterpieces of Neapolitan pastry art to be combined with a coffee.
