Don Alfonso 1890 – The Book

An icon of Mediterranean haute cuisine, Alfonso Iaccarino has made his restaurant in Sant’Agata sui Due Golfi, on the Sorrento Peninsula, a point of reference for gourmets from all over the world. His philosophy rests on the highest quality ingredients, sourced from small local producers or grown organically on the Le Peracciole estate, and on the balance between Campania’s culinary tradition and a curious, creative spirit of innovation.

The added value is the family: as its name suggests, Don Alfonso 1890 has been tied to the Iaccarinos for more than a century, and today Alfonso and Livia are still its soul, together with their sons Ernesto and Mario.

The book explores the world of Don Alfonso starting from the family and moving on to the present and the future, to the different ventures the Iaccarinos run today. Each chapter is completed by recipes, all illustrated with photographs: the family members’ «dishes of the heart», historic preparations and the new creations that have won international acclaim.
