Food food food

This is what you really want to see, some of the delicious food we had at the Hotel Tramonto d'Oro:

Orata (sea bream) baked in salt, absolutely awesome tasting:



Gnocchi in Agerola cheese, our waiter said this was his favorite.

 

Riccota filled ravoli with a lemon cream sauce, Kathie said it was so light and delightful.

 

Dessert, lemon sponge cake with limoncello to drizzle from the chocolate cup.

 

You may have noticed lemons are kinda significant on the Amalfi Coast.  The lemon groves are terraced all over the hills, grow quite large and sweet, and require a 950 stair climb each day for our friend Valentino at Il Gusto della Costa to make his wonderful limoncella.  I'd highly suggest picking up a bottle from your local liquor store and enjoying a shot after dinner as a digestivo, or incorporate into a recipe, you won't be disappointed.

Ciao
