This restaurant in the refined setting of the Royal Paestum hotel boasts a stylish, contemporary dining room in which owner-chef Cristian Torsiello’s cuisine takes centre stage. This 40-year-old chef (originally from Valva, a small district of Salerno where he opened his first restaurant) demonstrates his culinary vision through creative ideas and techniques and a real respect for his ingredients. He is constantly searching for perfect combinations, creating deceptively simple dishes which always allow the flavour of his locally sourced ingredients to shine through. His 10-course “Tanagro” tasting menu pays tribute to the region (it takes its name from one of Campania’s rivers) and celebrates its seasonal produce with creativity and precision. In addition to the tasting menu, the à la carte highlights some of the chef’s signature dishes – specialities which are teeming with regional flavours and which showcase his talent and contemporary culinary vision to the full.
