22/06/2026: A wonderful experience, lunch at Trattoria Masella in Cerreto Sannita. A family atmosphere, beautifully presented food made with seasonal products, those found locally, at a specific time of year. Wild spinach from March to May, eggplant from July onwards, according to an ancient calendar that rejects everything and always, guaranteed by freezing and supermarkets. The flavors are those forgotten, because good cuisine is made from ingredients, be it meat, dairy products, or legumes. The lamb chops are excellent, accompanied by pan-fried chicory sides. Depending on your tastes, Mrs. Filomena knows how to recommend small variations that make the traditional menu truly special, from soups to desserts. We will return soon, in good company, to the trattoria, also encouraged by the good quality/price ratio.
