Don Salvatore - Restaurant - Naples, Italy
4 years ago 

The Don Salvatore is located near where the ferry for Capri leaves so it is a great place to stop and eat either before or after your trip the Capri.  More of a trattoria than a true restaurant the Don Salvatore is in an old boathouse.  Most of the dishes feature seafood.  I had a great seafood risotto while my friend had grilled fish (I can’t remember what type of fish it was).  They had an extensive wine list.  The service was a bit slow but they were busy.

 
A Fenestella - Restaurant - Naples, Italy
4 years ago 
The specialty of the restaurant is fresh fish but the best thing about A' Fenestella is the view.  The restaurant faces onto the bay and offers a panoramic view.  Of course since this is Naples they also have pizza.  My dinner was excellent.  I had a seafood pasta that was very good.  The wine was pretty good for a house wine.
 
Mariano Rubinacci - Shopping - Naples, Italy
4 years ago 

You can find Mariano Rubinacci stores in several large cities around the world but I think they started in Naples.  They are known for their silk scarves and ties which are indeed beautiful.  I bought an ashtray here that I love.  I don't smoke but I fell in love with design so I had to have it.  It is a great keepsake from Naples.  A lot of the scarves have Neapolitan scenes on them and others have maps.  They really are pretty.

 
Liuteria Calace - Shopping - Naples, Italy

You do not have to be a musician to love this store.  This is a store where all sorts of stringed instruments are made and repaired including lutes, violins, mandolins, etc.   It is a fabulous place to visit and browse around.
 
Ferrigno - Shopping - Naples, Italy
4 years ago 

Naples is famous for their nativity scenes (presepio).  Although you can find the figurines sold everywhere on the street they don't compare to what you find in some of the stores.  In Ferrigno you will find all sorts of angels, saints, wisemen as well as the nativity figures.  You can buy the figures separately or as a full nativity.  They also have statues of famous Neapolitans though most will be unrecgnized by those outside of Naples, or at least I did not recognize any of them nor did the people I was with.  They Ferrigno's (yes, there really are Ferrigno's) use different types of material to make their figurines including wood and silk.  The prices range from inexpensive (under 25 Euro) on up.

 
Ospedale delle Bambole - Shopping - Naples, Italy
4 years ago 

This is a wonderful little store or should I say doll hospital which is what Ospedale delle Cambole means.  Here you can find dolls of all types including those in need of repair because they are broken or worn out.  They also have beautiful antique dolls.  The dolls come in all forms - wood, wax, terra-cotta, papier-mache, plastic, etc.  The shop is small so it will not take much time to walk through it.  As you walk around the shop you can see the tools that are used to fix up the dolls.  I felt like I had taken a walk back in time when I visited this shop.

 
Grand Vanvitelli Hotel Caserta - Hotels & Hostels - Caserta, Italy
4 years ago 
The Grand Vancitelli is beautiful and luxurious.  It is only about 20 minutes from the Naples airport.  The staff are very friendly and helpful.  I have stayed at the Grand Vanvitelli for both business with my husband and on vacation on our way from Naples to Amalfi.  With 4 or 5 restaurants incluing one on the roof on site there is no need to go outside the hotel for a meal. Check-in and Check-out was quick and easy which is not always the case in Italy.  The hotel is very quiet even though it is very close to an interstate.  The area around the hotel is not very nice so don't plan to spend much time there but it is great for business or if you are on your way somewhere and need a place close to Naples.
