Antica Salumeria Malinconico dal 1890

Four generations of the Neapolitan marenna

The story

Carlo Malinconico came to Naples from Palma Campania and opened this salumeria in 1890, in the same spot it occupies today. His great-grandson Alessio, the fourth generation, revived the marenna: simple rosetta rolls filled at the counter. The signature is ricotta e cicoli (fresh ricotta with pork crackling). Gambero Rosso holds it up as the perfect example of the salumeria revival.
