Spieler includes chapters on pasta and pizza, festivals and celebrations, the fruit and vegetables that flourish in volcanic soil, and "how to eat like a Neapolitan.". The heart of the book, though, is the city's deeply embedded food culture, which Spieler explains is deeply intertwined with the penny-frugal but taste-rich habits of the poor: there are pages on the abundant San Marzano plum tomato ("fragrant, fleshy. and bright skin that peels off easily") and also plenty about pasta, such as linguine alle vongole, "one of the most iconic dishes.".
