Up date on Amalfi CoastOur favorite place to stay on these very special untouch coast line is Positano. From there you can go to Ravello, Almalfi. You can skip Sorrento. The road is an experience! The driving also....
Hotel: Siranuse of course. For the smell of it "Eau d'Italie", which I decide is my summer perfum. For the whole feeling of it. For The restaurants, the oyster bar, the amazing view from everywhere, the service, the special bed. And finally, for the thousaunds steps you have to climb back to the hotel.
Lunch: by boat Taverna del Capitain for the very interesting dessert "egg plant with chocolate", I recommand if you are a bit aventurous. Plenty of other more casual restaurants are available per boat, we pick La Gavitella
Chez Blake. Siranuse : "Spagetti Vongole" on the pool terrace overviewing Positano and the coast is a must.
Dinner: Don Alfonso (near Sorrento), one of the best restaurant in Italy.
The dinning room is a very trendy room which is unusual for this part of Italy. The "Sommolier" is the best we have meet so far. Great personnality. The cellar is spectacular.
Villa Cimbrone (Ravello) Wonderful spot, great food. Make sure you wear flate shoes , there is a 15 mn walk to get up there.
Siranuse: Don Alphonso is the executive chef since 2 or 3 years. We discover the 25 years old Balsamico...cann't really use the normal stuff any more. The view, the Italian singers, the Italian cuisine very Romantico
Shop : one shop on 3 floors men & women designer clothes, bags and shoes....don't remember the name. Nice art galleries
