The places from this trip
- Gino Sorbillo Artista Pizza NapoletanaHer second pick for Neapolitan pizza — try the Diavola; expect a queue outside on Via dei Tribunali.
- Piazza del PlebiscitoCome at golden hour — the colonnade, Royal Palace and street singers make the square magical.
- Via dei TribunaliThe street for the food crawl: fried pizza, arancini and pizzerias one after another, plus street art alleys.
- Galleria Umberto IClassic spot to eat a sfogliatella riccia — try it warm, cold and even the savory version.
- Lungomare CaraccioloWatch the sunset from the rocks on the shoreline, with the Bay of Naples and cruise ships in view.
- Officina del MareHer go-to in Naples when you want fish over pizza: sea urchins, red prawns and oysters straight off the ice, outdoor tables in Piazzetta Marinari.
- L'Antica Pizzeria da MicheleOne of her two picks for real Neapolitan pizza — classic margherita or marinara only.
- Il Vero Bar del ProfessoreA must-stop: their famous hazelnut espresso (nocciolato), pistachio babà al rum and zeppole di San Giuseppe.
- Cuori di SfogliatellaFirst stop right off the train at Piazza Garibaldi: huge range of sfogliatelle — sweet, savoury, cream-and-pistachio cones, even ice-cream filled in summer.
- Basilica Reale Pontificia San Francesco da PaolaThe domed church with the colonnade closing off Piazza del Plebiscito — best light at sunset.
- Castel dell'OvoWalk the causeway at golden hour — street singers, boats and views over the bay toward Posillipo.
- Antica Pizzeria e Friggitoria Dal PresidenteDon't sit for pizza — order the fried arancini and pizza fritta straight from the street counter.
- Serafino ai TribunaliFried food stall: get a paper cone of fried vegetables, cauliflower and croquettes, or quality deep-fried seafood.
- La Sfogliatella MaryGet the sfogliatella riccia warm inside Galleria Umberto I — warm and incredibly tasty.
- Lungomare Santa LuciaWalk it for sea air and a Vesuvius view across the bay; on hot days the sea breeze saves you.
- Antica Pizza Fritta da Zia Esterina SorbilloDon't skip this fried-pizza stop even if there's a queue.
- B&B Relais Piazza del PlebiscitoVia Solitaria 39, in the alleys of the city centre and seconds from the sea — saves time on commuting.
- Palazzo Reale di NapoliThe arcaded Royal Palace facade faces Piazza del Plebiscito.
- Pizzeria Donna Sofia ai TribunaliGo for the fried pizza filled with ricotta and cherries, and the folded pizza a portafoglio.
- Leopoldo InfanteTry the babà al rum in its many versions, plus zeppole, cream puffs with wild berries and pastiera.
- Borgo MarinariLittle harbour under Castel dell'Ovo lined with waterfront restaurants — lovely at sunset.
- Passione di SofìA wonderful place on Via Toledo 206 to try Neapolitan pizza fritta.
- Volo FioriPhotogenic alley scene: the shop's big red wicker heart hangs over the street among the flowers.
