Here at Villa San Giacomo, you can also assist the chef in preparing meals. The chef will be happy to share anecdotes, secrets, and interesting stories about the dishes and the traditions of the town. But the real story of our area is told by the products themselves, the local ingredients that contain all its authenticity, richness, and beauty: the famous Gragnano pasta, the Cilento region’s Menaica anchovies, “pomodorini del piennolo del Vesuvio” tomatoes, and the Amalfi lemon, our region’s treasure. Our chef prepares a whole host of traditional local dishes like aubergine parmigiana, lasagne, “‘ndunderi” gnocchi with ricotta from the town of Minori, gnocchi alla sorrentina, Caprese salad, scialatielli pasta with seafood, or “pasta e fagioli”, a dish made of pasta and beans, with mussels.
