Through this interview, the aim is to tell the story of the Umberto restaurant and to examine the factors that have ensured its longevity. The story begins in 1916, when Ermelinda and Umberto Di Porzio, nicknamed ‘o treddeta, founded a small trattoria. Today, the restaurant is run by Massimo and Lorella who, with the same passion and expertise that one can expect from a family that has been involved in hospitality and the transmission of traditional recipes for over a century, keep the Neapolitan food and wine culture alive.
