Amazing Aperitifs and Appetizers - La Torre Del Saracino, Seiano (Na)

Image
October has become on of my favorite months of the year.  Though the days are getting noticeably shorter, the Campania sunshine still shines bright inviting Saturday stellato lovers like me to hit the road for a min roadtrip combined with a long leisurely lunch.  I chose La Torre del Saracino in Seiano to celebrate the beginning of a marvelous month.   It has been about 10 months since I sat down in the  watchtower , which the perfect spot for an aperitif or six, a glass of champagne, and a chance to look over Chef Gennaro Esposito's 2 Michelin starred menu. Here's a look at the treats  brought out to help me relax ... Red bell pepper ice cream, Cetara anchovy sauce, lemon and red chili pepper pesto, and pistachios. Creamy potatoes with flying squid. Red beet and zucchini salad . Beef tartar and porcini mushroom sandwich. Salmon bagel. Steamed sandwich bun filled with rabbit alla ischitana and escarole.
