The magazine describes Neapolitan cuisine as "still deeply popular, accessible and representative of the identity." Pizza, fried food, pasta, markets, street food and pastries remain a model of conviviality that is difficult to replicate outside of Italy.

Among the addresses mentioned are Salumeria Malinconico, where Alessio Malinconico reinterprets the family tradition of sandwiches built over four generations, and Mimì alla Ferrovia, by chef Salvatore Giugliano. The restaurant recently appeared in the series “Tucci in Italy", by Stanley Tucci, for National Geographic."
