Vietri sul Mare, Vietri sul Mare Italy
Volta Del Fuenti By Michele De Blasio
Once you’ve passed through Vietri heading towards the Amalfi Coast, you come to the Giardini del Fuenti perched on a cliff sloping towards the sea. This hotel complex boasts a beach, terraced garden and the Riva Restaurant, which is open at lunchtime only and which also hosts various food and wine events. In a spacious dining room with large windows overlooking the beautiful bay, chef Michele De Blasio serves modern, elaborate and minimalist-style dishes based on reinterpretations of classic specialities from Campania, all showcased on two tasting menus and an à la carte. We particularly enjoyed the excellent and copious welcome snacks, with a special mention for the local speciality, Vietrese donkey meat, and the veal sweetbreads with citrus fruit, walnuts and rocket.
