Snapshot of a Territory - Falerno del Massico, April 29, 2014, SUD Ristorante, Quarto (Na)

There are few things more exhilarating  to me than walking around a vineyard with my little Nikon in hand.   My latest adventure took me to the Caserta province to learn as much as I could about Falerno del Massico...and take a few snapshots.
Falerno/Falernum- a wine that often found itself of the banquet tables of emperors will find its way to SUD Ristorante in Quarto for a special evening on the 29th of April, 2014 at 8:30 pm.
Villa Matilde, Masseria Felicia, Az. Agricola Gennaro Papa and Viticoltori Migliozzi will present their latest vintages of their top wines during a tasting that will focus on the many faces of Falerno.

Welcome to My Home - Lunch at Antica Osteria Nonna Rosa with Chef Peppe Guida

I've lost count as to how many times I have seen Chef Peppe Guida since we met for the first time last April .  On every occasion, from dinners at Pastifcio dei Campi to visits to Marina Yacht Club , we always ended our conversations agreeing that I needed to visit him a casa sua ...his home, his restaurant, Antica Osteria Nonna Rosa in Vico Equense (Na). I chose a Saturday afternoon to visit the chef's home, which really was just that...a home.  A renovated house dating back to the 17th century.  Chef Guida took me on a little tour pointing out where the pizza oven used to be, for example, which now is a small corner intimate dining room/wine cellar.  My eyes, however, were drawn to the family room where among antique furniture and plants hanging from the ceiling was a comfortable couch.

Scarpetta. ..the word alone makes one's taste buds jump for joy.  Scarpetta, little shoe, is an act of love at the end of a meal. A show of respect and admiration performedw ith a piece of great bread and the remnants of a fantastic sauce left on the plate at the end a a course. That is the spirit behind Franco Pepe' s latest pizza - La Scarpetta.   Pepe's soft pizza dough paired with an amazing ragu tomato sauce.  For the sauce, Pepe chose three tomato varieties and slow cooked them so that they fused together to make an incredible tomato sauce. This sauce is not cooked in the oven with the pizza dough, but added on top afterwards.  Then a couple of shavings of Grana Padano cheese (aged 12 and 24 months) Just one more taste of happiness courtesy of Pepe in Grani.. .
