Donna Tutina is a super convenient trattoria in the Spanish Quarters with a €25 menu including five appetizers, first course, second course, dessert, water and wine, plus live singing every day.
Dishes mentioned
Bruschetta al Pomodoro
We start with a very abundant appetizer and a singer. Classic tomato bruschetta. Pasta cresciutello la maestà a parmigiana mulignana. Vincenzo's singing makes everything taste better, parmesan and zucchini flowers, guys.
Scarpariello
I chose the scarpariello because I don't love the Nerano version with zucchini cream. Nice and saucy, strong cheese, slightly spicy, scarpariello done right. Guys, I'll let you taste this one.
Paccheri con Pomodorini del Vesuvio, Frutti di Mare e Branzino
Pescato Santa Lucia, paccheri, cherry tomatoes from Vesuvius, seafood and sea bass. This is cool because they do first and second courses and I take the chance to say they have very fresh fish because they also have the same menu but with seafood for €30.
Polpetta al Ragù
Then we move on to the second courses, choice between meatballs in ragù and stasic and Friariell. I chose the meatball in ragù. Guys, the meatball in ragù is infallible, you can never say no to it. Even with 40°C.
