Enoteca Maria

Posted on March 28, 2009 - by admin

Carmelina from Marcianise, Napoli

Our Grandmas

Carmelina

Carmelina Pica was born in the small town of Marcianise in Naples, Italy—the city famous for pizza and historic landmarks like Castel Nuovo. She came to America as a young woman with her husband and took up residence on Staten Island where she worked several years at a Salumeria. She cooks the traditional, classical cuisine of Naples. She’s our snow bird spending six months in New York and six months in Florida. Carmelina says that cooking at the Enoteca feels like family to her.

    In un momento così buio per la nostra città (camorra, inquinamento, inciviltà) è un vero piacere sapere di una marcianisana che si fa (e ci fa) onore. Congratulazioni!

    I’m dying to try the food here, ever since I saw the resturant on $9.99. The food looks amazing, and my Mother’s family is from the Naples region (City of Pignataro Interamna (FR): Lazio Region) as well so I know I’ll love Carmelina’s cooking!
