Zizzona di Battipaglia Ripiena di Parmigiana di Melanzana
After a beer, I go with a masterpiece — the original Zizzona from Battipaglia stuffed with eggplant parmigiana, breaded and fried light. It's too beautiful. The parmigiana is crunchy, the Zizzona is full of milk. Beautiful.
Pasta e Patate con Provola Mantecata nella Forma di Grana Padano
Then the classic pasta e patate with provola cheese mantecata in a Grana Padano wheel. Truly unforgettable. A bit hot for pasta e patate — I'm sweating blood — but for pasta e patate you always make an exception.
Pollo allo Spiedo con Patate e Sughetto
Then something protein-rich — chicken on the spit directly from the festival with a potato and the little sauce from Pios, with their Pios sauce. Guys, it's really another flavour, the spit-roasted chicken.
- Pizza Margherita
