The smells, small shops, stalls of fresh fish near the coast, every detail reminds you of how much Campania is associated with culinary arts, even the Neapolitan shouting makes your mouth water.

Baked goods and the fish market are the culinary heritage of this region. The local cuisine was strongly influenced by chefs such as Antonio Latini, who was the first to use tomato not only to garnish dishes but to prepare sauce. Pasta with tomato sauce is a classic of the Mediterranean diet, tasty and affordable for anyone from nobility to the common person. The people are the creators of this land’s culinary arts. From the beginning, Parthenope (the Greek name of Naples), encouraged trade and craft activities and over the centuries Arab, Spanish and of course French culture would add their influence to its art and culture.
