In Calabria the range of food reflects the natural landscape, which changes between mountain areas and the sea. The meals have therefore a strong and genuine taste of a long tradition of the farmers and fishers. The sunny region produces lemon fruits, olives, vegetables and wines.
Beside, Calabria is the home of the red Peperoncino, which gives the crucial spice to the simple but incomparable dishes, underlining the tastes of the meals without covering them.
Along the Tyrrhenian coast from Parghelia to Capo Vaticano the red onion (cipolla rossa) is cultivated due to the perfect combination of the mild Mediterranean climate, salty air and the special ground conditions, providing the characteristics of the sweet onion.
Do not miss to taste the delicious Calabrian dishes in one of the typical local restaurants, which are mostly outside the tourist centres, or on one of the folkloristic fairs in the region.
