Tavola Calda

The food is always tempting and the welcome is always warm at L.U.I.S.E.

Crostate di Taglioni at L.U.I.S.E. The recipe can be found on page 32 of "Naples At Table."

L.U.I.S.E.: In the rear of this retail delicacy store is the best tavola calda in town - hot, warm and cold dishes, including freshly fried tidbits, served at a counter. Don't miss the palle di tagliolini (fried egg pasta cakes), although the cases at the counter are filled with irresistible stuff. This is the best place for a quick lunch or snack when shopping at the fancier end, the Piazza Martiri end, of the Via Chiaia. They make many of the old fashioned baked pasta dishes, including timballi and pizza rustica, plus frittate, etc. -- everything is first-rate. (There are other L.U.I.S.E. locations -- at Santa Brigida and Piazza San Domenico Maggiore -- but they are not owned by the woman who owns the one in Piazza Martiri and they are not nearly as good, although they do have tempting sweets and the one on the Piazza San Domenico Maggiore is a pleasant place to sit outdoors.) Inexpensive.
Piazza dei Martiri; tel. (081) 417-735
