Il Castagneto In Nocera superiore

28/08/2024: Excellent pizza, very kind owners. Super recommended.

03/08/2024: Just 2 minutes by car from the PADULA-BUONABITACOLO exit of the A3 SA-RC motorway (now A2 Mediterranean!) both towards Salerno and Reggio-Calabria, 5 minutes from the beautiful Certosa di Padula (Unesco heritage! ), in the center of the still little-known Vallo di Diano, part of the Cilento National Park, with its characteristic villages (one above all Teggiano) and its uncontaminated nature (I recommend the Pertosa Caves)! Located at the crossroads between Campania, Basilicata (Maratea 50 minutes away) and Calabria (Diamante just over 1 hour away), here at the Colonia pizzeria I truly had the best pizza I've ever tasted, strictly wood-fired, high and fragrant but absolutely digestible , with a wide choice of condiments: spring, tricolore, emmentaler salami and onion, caciocavallo and capocollo, porcini, sausage and parmesan, caprese also with smoked provola, to be accompanied with a fresh HB beer on tap. In the evening pizza, at lunch traditional Italian and southern dishes such as sea and mountain appetizers with local cured meats and dairy products, fresh Sicilian fusilli, with meat sauce, tagliatelle with speck and courgettes, roast veal and pork. Large outdoor terrace fabulous on summer evenings. The owners Antonio and Anneliese are always friendly and helpful. Italian and German speaking!
