Why Choose Minori Restaurants Over Tourist Hotspots
Unlike the overcrowded destinations of Positano or Amalfi, Minori still preserves many characteristics of the fishing and farming village it has always been. This authenticity translates directly into the Garum Restaurant philosophy, where every dish tells the genuine story of local life: from fishermen’s nets to lemon terraces, from ancient mills to homemade pasta traditions.
The Roman Heritage in Our Minori Restaurant
Minori houses the remains of a 1st-century Roman villa, testimony to an ancient tradition of hospitality and culinary refinement. Garum Restaurant takes its name from the most precious Roman condiment, honoring this heritage through cuisine that blends history with modernity, tradition with innovation – a perfect introduction to authentic Italian culture for international guests.
