With outdoor tables nestled next to the gorgeous yellow-painted Barique style Carmelite Church del…read moreCarmine, Bar Carmen is a perfect spot to have breakfast or light afternoon snack. Or to enjoy a glass of wine while watching all the people coming and going. I passed by so many times as this was on the path between my hotel and the shopping area, east of the Piazza Tasso, I finally decided to stop and give my feet a rest. Surprisingly affordable for a bar in the heart of Sorrento, I had a glass of red wine and opted for veal scaloppini for a late afternoon meal. The veal was very thin and quickly pan fried with a lovely lemony sauce balanced by briney capers. It was delicious and a welcomed reprieve from all the pasta I had been eating since I arrived. Others around me were enjoying pizza, pasta and gelato on a bright, sunny, 80 degree day in October. Sitting here surrounded by the incredible architecture of the buildings in this square was a quintessential Sorrento experience.

There are basically three different types of eating establishments to choose from in Italy. A…read moreRistorante, a Bar, or a pizzeria. A pizzeria is what it is. Specializes in pizza but also makes other entrees as well. A Ristorante which is a little more up scale with the waiters in tuxedos, table clothes, and fancy silverware. But my favorite of the places to eat are the Bars. Bars in Italy aren't like what you typically think of a bar in the States. They are restaurants but usually half the price of the "Ristorantes". Chances are the food will be just as good but served in a more casual environment. Which brings me to one of my favorite places to eat in Sorrento, Bar del Carmine. Since being in here we have eaten here a couple times, here's a few things we've order: Tuna salad and chicken salads: both are great. I'd order it everytime I come to Carmine's. Very fresh, a nice combination of flavors, meat, bell peppers, fresh mozzarella, corn, onions, olives, articoke hearts, and carrots. They don't serve any Thousand Island, Ranch, or Italian dressing out here. There's only one choice which is delicious, olive oil and Vino Blanco. Cheeseburger: not anything like the American Standard for a burger but still good. Small patty, the main focus is mozzarella and the tomatoes. So if you are expecting an In & Out burger, ForgetAboutIt... Pizza: only thing bad at Bar del Carmine is the pizza. Probably the worst pizza I have eaten in Italy. But pizza should be from the pizzeria anyway. Service is always good. Prices much more reasonable. Comfortable and casual with great people watching being that it is located in the center of Piazzo Tasso.

You can tell the guy who took our order is the owner and he showed a great deal of pride in his restaurant. I wanted to order an additional plate since my main course was only fish.. he said it would be too much and he didn't want to waste food. Most restaurants don't care as long as they sell you more. Every dish was soo flavorful. My daughter's dish was the two color pasta with Gorgonzola and honey and it was amazing. My fish was moist and flavorful. My husband's pesto was very good and so was my sons pasta. I tasted everyone's food lol. The salad was also amazing. We all loved what we ordered and that is very rare.

We had the Gnocchi Alla Carrettella, Gnocchi Scarpetta, Fettucine Paglia E Fieno, and Penne All'Arrabbiata. All 4 dishes were excellent but my favorite by far was the Gnocchi Alla Carrettella. If I lived in this area this would be a frequent stop for me. TIP: They open at 6 pm for dinner, have limited seating and fill up very quickly. Arrive by 5:50 and get in the queue to be seated. It's worth it!

On our last day, we decided to sit down at their outdoor café area and the service was great. Loved that they actually had some bigger breakfast options too: omelets, scrambled eggs, and even iced coffee and iced cappuccinos, which are harder to find in Italy. Overall, a really solid quick breakfast spot right in the heart of Sorrento. Great food, great vibe, and I'd definitely come back if im ever back in town.

Bar Paradise was the perfect little gelato stop while exploring Positano…read more The gelato was creamy, flavorful, and exactly what you want when you're walking around the Amalfi Coast and need something sweet and refreshing. The location makes it even better. You're right near Spiaggia Grande in the heart of Positano, so it's easy to grab a gelato and either keep exploring or sit outside for a while and take in all the activity around you. It's casual, convenient, and has that easy beach-town atmosphere where you can stop in without making a whole production out of it. Good gelato in Positano with a great location. Sometimes that's really all you need.
