差不多半年沒有寫遊記了..自去年聖誕節前去完台灣和泰國後，便懶惰起來，連復活節假期最期待的意大利之旅也沒時間記下來，希望今次可以的起心肝吧!
拿玻里危險嗎?
一直都很想去一轉拿玻里，原因是那裡是一個美食天堂。最喜歡看Discovery Channel的旅遊飲食節目，但一直也知道拿玻里很危險，也怕自己一個人去不太好。
今年，在計劃旅遊時，最終老公也一起出發，於是便立刻把拿玻里加進去，除此之外，也是因為我很喜歡另一地方 - Positano，而到Positano，也通常會經過拿玻里。
不少人說，拿玻里很亂、很危險、很舊，是黑手黨控制的城市，是罪惡溫床。
那夜，我們晚上9時多才到達拿玻里，不管有多夜，也要走到街上，到著名的PIZZA店，一嘗世界上名氣甚大的拿玻里PIZZA。雖然已是夜深，但沒有我想像中的亂、沒有想像中的舊，拿玻里就如一般意大利其他大城市一樣，依舊令人驚訝。
意大利文老師說，拿玻里很危險，要小心，她媽媽多年前到過拿破里也遇到小偷。是我太喜歡意大利，還是怎樣?走在拿玻里街頭，我覺得沒什麼別的，就連網上說滿佈爬手，拿玻里到蘇連多(Sorrento)最危險的火車路段，我也覺得沒什別的，還只不過是一般的火車車程嘛!
今次在拿玻里只留了一個晚上，只吃了著名的PIZZA，拿玻里還是披著一個神秘面紗，留待我下一次再次發掘她的美。

L'antica Pizzeria da Michele
今次到拿玻里，最主要的目的當然是吃PIZZA! 在網上搜了很多PIZZA店，看看應選哪一間吃。
L'antica Pizzeria da Michele - 是間百年老店，有人選擇它是認為它是全意大利最好吃的PIZZA店，有人認識它是因為它就是Julia Robers 在電影 " Eat Pray Love" 與友人一嚐意大利PIZZA的美味。
L'antica Pizzeria da Michele 只供應兩款PIZZA, 說實在的，好吃的東西，吃多也不會厭，所以兩款便夠，
一款是Pizza Margherita, 另一款是Pizza Marinara，前者就是較多CHEESE嘛~ 普通大小的, 只倉4歐羅，你可以選擇DOUBLE CHEESE, 也只是加多1歐羅。
意大利人的PIZZA每個也是超大的，雖然PIZZA很薄，但一個PIZZA對我來說也很多了，不明白為何意大利人每日可以很快地一口一口的吃完整個，看見有些意大利男人更要吃1個半呢!!!
我們晚上9:30才到，還以為應該不用等位吧，誰知店門口企滿一大堆等候的人!!!叫號還有百多個。但山長水遠夜晚晚才來到，沒理由不等吧! 店11點關門，但我們真的11時才能進去!!!! 入去二話不說，便叫了2個PIZZA, 我的評價是，餅底很薄，餅邊很脆，中心不是脆的，因為鋪滿了芝士和蕃茄醬，很新鮮，CHEESE是特別的滑，與香港吃的感覺不一樣! 香港吃的PIZZA< 那些CHEESE經烤焗過後，總是有一點點的「鞋」口。但這個PIZZA 的芝士是很滑的!!!

這個PIZZA確實是意大利之旅一個很好的開始，可能有人說，一餐只吃一個PIZZA也吃不到其他，感覺會悶嗎? 確實不會的，而且，我仍對那裡的PIZZA念念不忘，為何香港做不到這麼美味的PIZZA呢????
題外話，由於到西西里前要回拿玻里上船，本來也希望襯著空檔，趕緊去試另一間名氣超大的PIZZA店，可惜那天竟然關門!!!!!!枉我們走了很遠路找這間店，後來還總要填肚才上船，便隨意點了另一間PIZZA店，也算是百年老店，雖然不知道是否出名，但PIZZA還是比香港的好味! 就只是隨意的一間也能這麼好味，難怪拿玻里擁有美食天堂的美譽!
Haven't written for my blog for more than half year....since after my trip to Taiwan and Thailand last Christmas.. even still haven't had chance to write about my Italy trip this Easter! Mamamia.....

Is Napoli dangerous?
It's long be my dream to visit Napoli as it is famous for its italian gourmet, especially every time when I watched Discovery Channel and it just made me wanna go again and again. However, Napoli is also "famous" as it is a bit danger and people don't suggest to go alone!
This year when I was planning my Italy trip and my husband decided to come together! Therefore, I immiedately added in "Napoli" in my itineray, and one of the reasons was that, I wanted to go to Positano, another dream place that I longed to go for a long long time, and going to Positano, you will pass through Napoli most of the time.
People said that Napoli is dangerous, old, and a "malfia" city and full of sin.
On the night of our arrvial, it was 9pm something. However, how could I not try the famous pizza when I was in Napoli? This was impossible! Therefore, we went out at 9 something. It wasn't that dangerous as what I felt indeed. Napoli is a big city, same as other italian city but it was its history that still attracted and suprised me.
My italian teacher once said to me that Napoli is dangeour and I had to be careful. Her mum lost her belongings in Napoli although it was many years ago. I don't know why, is it because I am so into Italy or just because of some other reasons? Walking on the narrow and dark street in Napoli, I didn't feel unsafe nor scare, but just feeling amazed!
Some also said that the train trip from Napoli to Sorrento is the most dangerous one. And I just found it very safe and indeed, it's quite comfortable! (although some kept playing music and asked for money during the whole trip...)
I just stayed in Napoli for a night and tried the pizza. But Napoli is still a mystery to me and I believe that I have to go there again to discover its beauty and charm in future.

L'antica Pizzeria da Michele
The only thing I went to Napoli this time was of course, its Pizza! After doing some reserach on the interent, I have chosen L'antic Pizzeria da Michele, a Pizzeria with more than 100 years of history. Some said that it's the BEST pizzeria in Italia but some love it just because of the film "Eat Pray Love" starring by Julia Roberts who ate the pizza at the pizzeria.
There are only 2 kinds of pizzas in L'antica Pizzeria da Michele, of course, it doesn't need a lot of choices if it is good.
The 1st one is Pizza Marghertia and the other is Pizza Marinara. Obviously Margherita has more cheese. The normal size just costs 4 euro and if you choose double cheese one, you just have to add 1 euro.
The pizza in Italy is indeed quite big, although they are comparatively thinner than those in Hong Kong, it's still too much for me. But I just don't understand why the italian can just eat them all up quickly! I saw some italian guys eat more than 1 pizza!
We arrived at the pizzaeria at around 9:30pm and thought that we shouldn't have to wait for the seats. However, it is indeed in opposite, there were still lots of people waiting outside, with more than 100 numbers we have to wait. But we thought that we shouldn't give up so easily so, we just kept waiting and waiting. And not until 11pm, slightly earlier than the shop should close, we got our seats finally! We immediately ordered 2 pizzas, and my opinion was: thin crust and crispy edge, and the pizza was full of cheese and fresh tomato sauce! The cheese was just different from those I had in Hong Kong! They were simply so yummmy!
The pizza has marked a great start of my italy trip, some may wonder isn't it so boring that you just eat pizza most of the time in italy, but for me, i will never get enough of it. Wonder why the restaurant in Hong Kong just couldn't make such delicious pizza?
Okay, so before we went on board to get to Sicily (Catania), we squeezed out another time and just wanted to try another famous pizzeria in Napoli. Unfortunately it was CLOSED!!! So we just found another pizzeria on the same street, although we didn't know if it's famous or not, it was still another pizzeria with over 100 years of history! Anyway, the pizza was still so yummy and I just thought that all the pizza in Napoli is more delicious than those in Hong Kong! And that is why Napoli is regarded as the Food Paradise!

Italian pizza isn't like the pizza in Hong Kong which contains lots of ingreidents. Sometimes, simple is perfect. With just mozzarella and tomatoe suace, it's just perfect! "Perfecto"
We had our dinner at the pizzeria after 11pm, probably it was too late and rush, and we didn't want to get back to the hotel so late, we were unable to finish up the whole pizza!
這個便是趕上船前隨意找的一間PIZZA店，我選了FOUR CHEESE! 真的超好味!!!!!餅底較百年老店沒有那麼軟，可能香港人會比較喜歡!
Before we went onbaord to Catania, we found another pizzaeria and I tried the Four Cheese one! It was awesome! The pizza crust is not as soft as the another one, and probably it fits our taste more!

大家要留意，從拿玻里機場出來，若選擇搭便宜一點的巴士回市中心，要一路的向左走，機場一出是機場巴士和停車場，不要理會這些只要一路向左走，你會看見M記，要再經過M記走多一小段路，便會看見ALIBUS的車站! 要留意，買車票最好在離開機場前入面有間小商店，因為有人說在車上買票的話，一是有些司機會說沒得賣，一是確實會貴一點!~
If you come out from the Napole Airport, and decide to take the local bus to the centre, you have to keep going left. There are airport coach and parking lots right outside the airport, but you have to keep going left until you find McDonald's and pass it and walk for a while, you will then find the Alibus Busstop! You better buy the bus ticket at the small shop inside the airport, as some people say that if you buy it on the bus, either it may be more expensive or the driver may turn you down!
