Via Nardones 117; meals €30;

Hung with theatre
posters and playbills, saffron-hued San Ferdinando pulls in well-spoken theatre types and
intellectuals. For a Neapolitan taste trip, ask for a rundown of the day's antipasti and
choose your favourites for an
antipasto misto
(mixed antipasto). Seafood standouts in-
clude a delicate
seppia ripieno
(stuffed squid), while the homemade desserts make for a
satisfying dénouement.
Il Garum €€
( 081 542 32 28; Piazza Monteoliveto 2A; meals €35; lunch & dinner; Toledo)
Rustic yet genteel, softly lit Il Garum is a sound spot for delicately flavoured, revamped
classics. Stand out dishes include rigatoni with shredded courgettes (zucchini) and mus-
sels, and an exquisite grilled calamari stuffed with seasonal vegetables and cheese. Just
leave room for desserts like
torta di ricotta e pera
(ricotta and pear cake), all proudly
made on-site.
