"Il Pirata" Restaurant - Via Terramare, Praiano.
After having walked through a tiny and rocky path, nearby the sea, we have reached "il Pirata" restaurant in Praiano. Breathtaking view, pleasant welcome, and a simple and fine menù including a good selection of wines: it is advisable to pre-book a table if you prefer a very romantic place on the rocks.To start with we have had "Ruffiane del Pirata" (Ruffiane pasta with cherry tomatoes, crayfishes and squids) and "Paccheri alla Pirata" (Paccheri pasta with sun-dried tomatoes, potatoes, mussels and parmesan - Parmigiano Reggiano - flakes). They were both excellent: perfectly...al dente cooked, well seasoned, first choice products. As main course we have chosen "Totani e patate" (squids and potatoes), a speciality of both the restaurant and the Amalfi coast! The desserts were the "ricotta e pere" cake (cheese cake with pears), probably a variation of De Riso's one (a famous confectioner of the Amalfi coast) and "Semifreddo del Pirata" (a home-made ice-cream mousse, with savoiardi biscuits, cheese, almonds and hazelnuts)... a real symphony!Due to the location, very close to Furore and the well-known Marisa Cuomo's wine cellars, we have had "Fior d'uva" , a fruit scented and full-bodied white wine (2005)! Just one black mark: the background music was not suitable for the peace and quiet of the place. The sound of the sea would have been better!
