Naples gives the possibility to plunge into an unknown world of history and food that surprises every traveler. A food walking tour is a fun alternative to explore this amazing place. One of the best ways to visit the city is to walk through its unique streets famous for their traditional restaurants, pizzerias, and delis where food is fresh and tasty. Here the tourists can taste typical food. First of all, it is pizza (it was exactly here during the 19th century that the chef Raffaele Esposito made a pizza for the first time in honor of Queen Margaret of Savoia), “Sfogliatella” – a sweet shell-shaped filled pastry, “Babà” – a real explosion of taste, eggplant Parmigiana and zucchini flowers, garlic in many different flavors and much more. The traditional “Mercato della Pignasecca” is another authentic part of Naples life. Here you can buy fish, fruits, vegetables, cakes and much other traditional food such as famous “Piede e muso” – a dish of cow’s foot and snout. A quick stop in a bar with local cakes, coffee and liqueurs are essential. In Neapolitan bars, there is an ancient tradition called “Caffè sospeso” or pending coffee. If anyone wants to pay for a poor man’s coffee, he pays the double price. Poor people can always ask at the counter whether any of such “sospeso” coffees are pending when they come into a bar and if yes, they get free coffee. Morning or afternoon tourists will always find delicious food types they will like. Salty or sweet Naples can meet anyone’s taste.
