Lo Stuzzichino – Stefan’s Gourmand Weblog


Lo Stuzzichino is simply across the nook from Don Alfonso in Sant’Agata Sui Due Golfi. It’s an osteria that has been acknowledged by many guides as among the finest trattorie in Italy, together with tre gamberi by Gambero Rosso. It provides native conventional dishes, each à la carte and a tasting menu Del Buon Ricordo consisting of 5 programs for 55 euros (plus 2.50 cowl cost), together with a glass of Franciacorta as aperitif and amaro to complete. The appetizer served with the aperitif was bruschetta with cherry tomatoes that have been frivolously roasted within the oven. The tomatoes have been amazingly flavorful.

I picked a pleasant bottle of native wine from the in depth wine listing: a mix of three native genuine varieties (Fenile, Ginestra, Ripoli) from the Amalfi Coast. A posh and balanced wine with a pleasant freshness. It was a very good accompaniment for all the dishes.

The primary antipasto was strips of cuttlefish with inexperienced peppers (barely spicy) and cherry tomatoes, garnished with crispy strands of tomato pores and skin. The cuttlefish was tender and flavorful.

The second antipasto was peperoni imbottiti alla Sorrentina, which is a roasted bell pepper full of bread.

The primo piatto was ravioli full of ricotta and lemon zest, served with vongole. The pasta was completely al dente and the mixture with the vongole was very good.

The secondo was grilled ricciola (also called hamachi, amberjack, kingfish or yellowtail) with a tomato salad. Once more very flavorful tomatoes.

The dessert was merely known as Sorrento lemon delight, and consisted of layers of sponge cake and layers of a lemon cream, garnished with lemon zest. I assumed it was like a lemon model of tiramisu.

To complete the meal: Amaro del Monte San Costanzo.

Lo Stuzzichino provides nice worth for cash. The meals is excellent and the service very pleasant. The dishes style like they have been ready by native grandmothers. The restaurant has quite a lot of tables and may be very busy. However the proprietor, Mimmo, is consistently current to make it possible for everyone seems to be having a very good time. I can actually perceive why that is such a well-known osteria that has wone many prizes.
