La Strada

【Foodholic Noko@Amalfi Coast Italy-Plaiano】

There are too many scenic restaurants with stunning views along the Amalfi coastline. Because we don’t want to have to queue up for a meal, in order to avoid the tide of tourists in the two most famous towns - Positano and Amalfi, we decided to Find a restaurant to eat in Praiano, between the two towns

In fact, we didn't specifically look for a restaurant with a view. When we first stepped into the restaurant "La Strada", we thought, "Why, there's absolutely no one there." It wasn't until the clerk took us up to the second floor that we realized that all the customers were there. The building has a great view. When the sun sets, the sun shines on the mountains and the sea. It is really breathtaking.

Lemon fried rice balls €6
I didn’t expect that in this lemon-rich place, even the fried rice balls are lemon-flavored. I ordered it because I was curious. Unexpectedly, the taste was not very strange and it was quite delicious. The crispy outer skin is the highlight of the fried rice balls. Everything here is done! And there are 3 large pieces in one portion, which is equivalent to about NT$70 per piece. I personally think it’s okay to order~

Grilled cod with potatoes €22
In addition to lemon is a must-eat when you come to the Amalfi Coast, seafood is also indispensable. I haven’t eaten any fish when I came to Italy, so I chose grilled cod for the main meal. I concluded that this fish is very delicious. Great, it doesn’t taste fishy, ​​the meat is also elastic, and the baked potatoes are delicious. It’s worth mentioning that the bread crisps that come with it are super delicious after being soaked in the soup and soaked up with the soup!

Lemon cheese ravioli €18
Yes, even the ravioli is made with lemon filling, and the appearance is very cute, much like a poached egg; but I don’t like the taste of this dish so much compared to fried rice balls, maybe because it also has cheese. It tastes a bit gritty (really a bit like egg yolk), rather dry and greasy, and is not suitable for eating one portion by yourself. It would be better to share it.

Espresso €2
Italians are used to having dessert and coffee after a meal. We have not tried their espresso in so many days in Italy, so we ordered one to try.
I originally planned to take a shot, but it turned out that it was too hot. My conclusion about the espresso was: it was so bitter! I’d rather have coffee with milk 😂

Overall, as far as landscape restaurants are concerned, I personally think the price is acceptable and the taste of the food is above the standard. I can recommend it ~
