An exclusive location at the foot of Michelangelo’s tower, and a small village behind it. Cocò Mare, not far from the center of Ischia Ponte and immersed in the wild greenery, offers its guests the art of traditional cuisine with a constant touch of innovation.
Ingredients and technique
Beaten with bluefin tuna or the catch of the day. The essentiality is immediately revealed, excellent ingredients and a skilful hand at the stove. To exalt everything, with grit and acidity, there is a surprising citrus paste: oranges, lemons and limes, cooked at a low temperature, blended and seasoned with a little oil. The chef, with extreme naturalness, tells the details of his dish and finds himself attentive and at the service of raw materials. Not vice versa. The dish comes with diced peaches and a reduction of raspberry vinegar and red wine. Masterpiece.
Value
Impressive walls of the ‘500 surround an ancient Roman garden. Place to say the least exclusive, of great sensory impact. Immersed in the greenery, almost cathartic reaching it, before being catapulted into a hypnotic panorama made of Aragonese Castle, an ancient village, and blue: sky and sea as far as the eye can see. You can get there by land, but also by boat. Modern environment, which never overrides tradition. We recommend it to enjoy a skilful cuisine with essential flavors, the result of the correct use of modernity in the kitchen. The island and its best products are the protagonists, with the participation of a friendly and accommodating room service.
