About the Event
The Amalfi Coast — where lemon groves spill down sunlit cliffs, fishing boats drift in sapphire coves, and every meal celebrates the marriage of land and sea. On this unforgettable evening, immerse yourself in the coastal flavors of Campania and the volcanic wines born from its rugged slopes. Each course is a love letter to southern Italy — vivid, heartfelt, and unforgettable.
Menu
First Course – “From the Fisherman’s Net”
Fried Bluefish with Tomato and Garlic Toast Points - Locally caught bluefish, lightly dusted and pan-fried until golden, rests atop garlic-rubbed toast points crowned with sun-sweet tomatoes and a drizzle of herb-infused olive oil. A rustic coastal favorite that captures the honest simplicity of seaside cooking.
Paired with Lava Falanghina, A lively, mineral-driven sparkling wine born from the volcanic slopes near Mount Vesuvius. Its bright citrus and delicate bubbles awaken the palate and dance beautifully with the crisp, briny bluefish and garlic notes.
Second Course – “The Lemon Road”
Gli Scialatielli All’Amalfitana - Hand-cut scialatielli — a plump, short pasta native to the Amalfi coast — tossed in a fragrant sauce of Meyer lemon, white wine, and the day’s fresh seafood: tender calamari, sweet shrimp, littleneck clams, and mussels. Finished with garden herbs and a whisper of chili.
Paired with Ischia Bianco – Ischia Bianco From the island of Ischia, this white blend of Biancolella and Forastera grapes captures sea spray and volcanic minerals in every sip. Its saline freshness and citrus blossom aroma echo the coastal essence of the dish.
Third Course – “The Hunter’s Path”
Pollo alla Cacciatora - Free-range chicken slow-braised in a sauce of San Marzano tomatoes, briny capers, and Taggiasca olives, scented with rosemary and thyme. The sauce clings to each tender piece of chicken, deep with the rustic comfort of an Italian countryside kitchen.
Paired with Lava Aglianico A softly sparkling red with a deep ruby hue and notes of black cherry, violet, and spice. Born near Naples, Gragnano’s effervescence and light tannins cleanse the palate between bites of the rich, savory cacciatora.
Fourth Course – “The Monk and the Sea”
Paccheri con la Rana Pescatrice - Wide, tube-shaped paccheri pasta cradles morsels of monkfish — known as “poor man’s lobster” for its sweet, meaty texture — simmered in a Garlic Salsa Rossa di Pesce Monaco. Finished with Sicilian olive oil and fresh basil.
Paired with Mille Anni Piedirosso from casa d'ambra vs la pietra red blend from de concilis An ancient grape cultivated on the volcanic slopes of Campania, Piedirosso offers ripe red fruit, smoky undertones, and a smooth, velvety finish. Its structure and minerality bring balance to the rich, oceanic flavors of the monkfish. The La Pietra red has the body, depth and fruit to hold its own with a firm textured fish like monkfish.
Fifth Course – “Scorza del Limone” (Zest of the Lemon)
Tiramisu al Limone - A coastal reimagining of Italy’s iconic dessert. Layers of delicate ladyfingers soaked in Limoncello syrup are folded between lemon-mascarpone cream, crowned with ribbons of candied zest and a whisper of sea salt. Bright, airy, and irresistibly refreshing — the perfect finale to an Amalfi evening.
Paired with Limoncello Giarola Crafted on Italy’s southern coast, this golden liqueur bursts with sun-drenched lemon peel, sweet cream, and subtle herbal warmth. A toast to la dolce vita and the endless summer spirit of the Amalfi Coast.
