It hosts a wine bar, a restaurant and the famous kitchen-classrooms where amateur and professional culinary courses are held with the chefs of Gambero Rosso.
The pastry shop "Pintauro":
produces sweets and in particular the proverbial "Sfogliatella" since 1785, using recipes handed down from generation to generation. This family "exported" the Sfogliatella from the Amalfi Coast to Naples. In fact, the workshop in Via Toledo, remained a tavern until 1818, when the family Pintauro began to produce pastries that even today are simply sublime.
The restaurant is in the homonymous Palazzo dating back to 1400.
Refined ambience, extreme care in the choice of raw materials, a chef attentive to the seasons and original proposals, reinterpretation of traditional dishes but in full respect of its flavours. An experience for the eye and palate.
