Two Fantastic Firsts, Chef Angelo Carannante, Caracol, (Na)


The setting?  Caracol - Campi Flegrei's little secret that hugs on tightly to the cliffs of Capo Miseno.  After a steep, panoramic,  breathtaking jeep ride from the parking lot, a stroll on the fantastic terrace overlooking the sea, and an amazing round of aperitifs and appetizers, I wondered to myself, Can it get any better?



The response was sure and swift.   Chef Angelo Carannante, maybe inspired by the spectacular scene from his window at the pass, blending in with his years of experience in several  1 and 2 Michelin starred restaurants.

Chef Angelo Carannante


Maybe.

I was ready for the chef's round of pasta dishes.



Candele pasta al genovese with fresh raw tuna, lemon, and cocoa.



Then...



Ravioli acqua pazza/crazy water.  The ravioli is filled with the catch of the day such as scorpion fish, coccio/sea robin, and sea bass.



Fantastic.
