Quattro Passi 🌟🌟🌟 – August 23, 2025

A three-Michelin-starred restaurant on the Amalfi Coast. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking—come a bit earlier for dinner and grab a table by the edge to catch the sunset glow. 🌅 Though newly awarded three stars, the cuisine here stays true to classic Italian traditions, which aligns well with Michelin’s recent preferences. • Two series of appetizers: refreshing pickled vegetables and assorted pizza-inspired bites 🍅🍕 • First main course (still an appetizer): “My Garden”—tomato water gelée, olive oil, and edible flowers 🌸 • Zucchini flower tempura with ricotta, almonds, bottarga, and sea urchin. The tempura was light, and the bottarga and uni added a subtle taste of the ocean 🌊 • Mackerel with fig leaf oil and citrus jus—Italian seafood can be hit or miss; this mackerel leaned slightly bitter, and the sauce echoed that tone 🐟 • Tomato spaghetto: the tomato sauce was incredibly dense, almost like a purée, with an intense flavor 🍝 • Amalfi’s classic pasta: Linguine alla “Nerano” with zucchini, basil, black pepper, and a local cheese similar to Parmigiano 🧀 • Third pasta: lasagna with veal, pork, and ricotta. The chef shared that traditional lasagna here is rolled—this was my favorite of the pastas! 🥟 • Seabass with wood sorrel and Amalfi lemon sauce—a classic from the chef. The sauce was a French-style cream sauce; the fish was tender but had a noticeable fishy taste 🍋 • Second fish: Mediterranean cod with endive, capers, and quinoa, served with crispy fish skin and a rich fish bone broth. A beautiful balance of savory and herbal notes—I preferred this over the seabass. • Char-grilled chicken breast with burnt lemon and supreme sauce 🍗 • Lamb—three different cuts—prepared to solid three-star standards 🐑 • Dessert: saffron rice pudding was a unique and pleasant finish 🍚 Overall, while there weren’t many standout surprises, it’s a worthy three-star experience—especially with those stunning views. Definitely worth a visit! 💫 #FoodieLife #MichelinRestaurant #FoodDiary #ItalianCuisine #ThreeMichelinStars #AmalfiCoastDining #FineDining #LuxuryDining #TravelEats #CoastalViews #ClassicItalian
