daní maison
"“Home, family, tradition” is the motto of daní maison, the restaurant opened by Nino Di Costanzo in his old family house surrounded by the fertile vegetable gardens of Ischia. A small, romantic dining room surrounded by beautiful herb-scented Mediterranean maquis acts as the backdrop for the delicious cuisine which has made this chef famous, thanks to his creativity and technical expertise. For many years, Di Costanzo has experimented with combinations that showcase every single ingredient in a dish, which are intended to be instantly recognisable however complex the recipe. Although there are no sea views here, it is fish (from around the island and neighbouring Procida) that takes pride of place on the menu in dishes that are memorable for their stunning presentation. Book the chef’s table where you’ll have the best view of the chef at work, although you can also catch glimpses of the activity in the kitchen from elsewhere in the dining room. The recently opened Salumeria bistro at the garden entrance serves traditional dishes from Campania in a small dining room, as well as outdoors on its shady terrace. Be careful as the access road to the restaurant is particularly narrow." - Michelin Inspector
