Zass

Nothing screams "jet set" more than a meal at Zass, located in the hotel Il San Pietro di Positano.

Just outside of Positano, this is the perfect romantic place for fine dining. The view, the location, the lovely hotel, and the beautiful presentation and flavors.

The terrace looks over the sea cliff. The restaurant grows its own vegetables in the hotel garden, and a pizza oven stands at one end. Piano music in the air, and staff who actually make you comfortable.

They offer a tasting menu with wine pairings. We skipped it and went for the pastas. We started with a fish tartare, but the true star was the octopus with figs.

And then there was pasta. The spaghetti was impeccable. The tagliatelle, infused with lemon, accented by lobster and pistachios, ranks among the best we have ever tasted. The cannelloni, rich with ricotta and basil, is not something to skip.

We finished sharing a local fish. We almost skipped dessert, then they brought candies and a mini crème brûlée I can still taste with my eyes closed.

We did a small reel when we visited. Check it out.

Thank you for the enchanting evening, Zass.
