Street food tour: the Neapolitan culinary art

<p>In Naples, food is culture, tradition, conviviality and feeling. For every moment of the day there is a dish to honor. For every holiday, a culinary tradition to be respected. A must to follow and a command chart for every self-respecting true Neapolitan.</p><p>Meanwhile, our culinary origins start from very ancient origins. The "pinsa," from the verb "pinsare" meaning "to pull," now pizza, has even Greek origins. It was served precisely as street food in the small kiosks along the streets of Neapolis, the first city of Greek origin. Later this dough is handed down in Roman times, until it followed in the eras to follow and knew its international fame with the "Pizza Margherita" dedicated to Queen Magherita in 1889. </p><p>It was from that time that Neapolitan pizza became known throughout the world and became "the gold of Naples." Our reason for success in the world.</p><p>Second "gold of Naples" and an all-Neapolitan must-have is: espresso coffee. Artfully made with meticulous blending of coffee beans and metering of water and coffee by grand masters. In fact, one of the main elements that cannot be reproduced anywhere in the world except in Naples is water. It is said that the water in our aqueducts is just so good and makes our coffee so good.</p><p>From this then we add to it the culinary culture related to fish as a good seaside city, and especially fried food that makes everything taste better. The "fried fish cuoppo" is one of our specialties and one of our smartest street dishes, good and refined at the same time. </p><p>Another separate chapter is dedicated to our desserts. All mostly related to the Bourbon royal culture and ingredients of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Pompous, sophisticated but delicate and tasty at the same time. Each dessert has a history, an identity and a tradition. Each with a completely different taste that already tasting them all is worth a full day's tour in Naples.</p><p>But one of the main things that actually reflects the true Neapolitan sentiment of "street food" in addition to good eating, is precisely that of eating well but experiencing the street. Not precluding eating well while living the city streets. In short, a tour to just live.</p>
