"This is Napoli, and people look out for each other in the most creative ways." Stanley visits Chikù, a restaurant and catering company of Neapolitan and Romani women, each with their own unique food traditions, who formed a small community to mix the flavors of their cuisines together.

We saw this place mentioned on Stanley Tucci's programme and loved the sound of its combination of social action and fabulous food - it did not disappoint, this was some of the best food we had while we were in Italy (the vege moussaka was INCREDIBLE) and the hospitality and service was amazing. The women who work there are so friendly and welcoming, and Mario was kind enough to show us around the whole space, including the exhibition space above the cafe where children from the local school have created the art. We received the warmest welcome, great hospitality and some of the best food we've had during our travels - we cannot recommend this place highly enough!! Please visit, it is an amazing project doing amazing things within a community that has been marginalised on multiple levels, don't be put off by your perceptions of Scampia. It's really easy to get to, just ride right to the end of Linea 1 and its then a 15min walk. Plus, Scampia has some stunning street art and loads of green spaces, well worth an explore.

A nice place to eat some really good roma-italian food. The food was cheap and super delicious. The people there made the place very special. I would recommend and come back every time I‘m in Napoli.

A cozy and nice place in Scampia! We went there with a group from university and enjoyed the Roma Italian kitchen. Food was really delicious and the staff was super kind! I can highly recommend this place :))

My experience is as an armchair traveller watching Stanley Tucci's show, Searching for Italy." Now I know that sometime in my life I have to go to Chikù, and if it's on the menu order the sarma. Those stuffed cabbage rolls remind me of what by German grandmother made.

We went here as part of the Scampia tour. It was a great experience. The fabulous food, hospitality, location and history behind the restaurant were very special. I would recommend.

Chikù è un progetto ispiratore, che mostra quanto sia fondamentale uno spazio d’incontro aperto a tutti. È interessante scoprire come l’iniziativa abbia permesso alle donne rom di intraprendere un’attività e di condividere le proprie esperienze, creando una vera comunità. Inoltre, il cibo era eccellente.
