La Colombaia’s Favourite Summer Dishes
A Celebration of Authentic Capri Flavors
An ode to the most genuine tastes of the island. During the last summer season, guests at La Colombaia Restaurant, nestled within the prestigious Grand Hotel Quisisana in Capri, favored dishes that evoke the essence of Capri with every bite. This culinary gem delighted its patrons with the island’s most authentic flavors, offering a sensory journey that sparks cherished memories of an unforgettable summer.
Among the standout choices were the Ravioli Capresi, crafted with a delicate pasta that showcases remarkable technical skill. Their transparency is achieved through a meticulous starch blending process, while the filling—a harmonious blend of goat and sheep caciotta, ricotta, Parmigiano, and a touch of marjoram—delivers an explosion of flavors steeped in the island’s rich culinary tradition.
Another favorite, the timeless Spaghetti alle Vongole, remains a classic adored by international guests. This dish, combining the subtle texture of perfectly cooked pasta with the robust flavor of fresh clams, is a tribute to Mediterranean cuisine and the sea that surrounds Capri.
And, of course, no meal would be complete without the iconic Torta Caprese. With its moist, chocolate-rich texture, this symbolic dessert captures the hearts of every guest, making it an essential end to any dining experience.
At La Colombaia Restaurant, each dish is more than just food—it’s a story that intertwines with the history and beauty of Capri. Here, tradition meets a passion for cuisine, creating an unforgettable experience for every visitor.
