Bell’ e Buono:

The Recipe of a Life Lived Through Food


Embark on an extraordinary culinary journey with Carlo De Filippo, where the art of cuisine and the beauty of life converge in perfect harmony. "Bell’ e Buono," a Neapolitan expression meaning "beautiful and good," encapsulates the essence of Carlo’s philosophy—where every dish is a masterpiece, both in taste and presentation. But in true Neapolitan fashion, it also signifies something unexpected and wonderful, much like the surprises life often brings.

From the picturesque lemon groves of the Amalfi Coast to the bustling kitchens of luxury hotels, Carlo De Filippo’s journey is one of passion, perseverance, and an unyielding love for food. In January 2001, Carlo planted his roots on the Amalfi Coast, building his dream from the ground up. Nearly two decades later, alongside his strong and supportive wife Mariantonia and their two daughters, Carlo has turned Pineta 1903 into a culinary haven.

This book is not just a collection of recipes; it's a narrative of discovery and triumph. Carlo, who humbly describes himself as a “man without talent,” found his true calling in the kitchen, transforming his life and the lives of those around him. "BELL’ E BUONO" invites you into his world, sharing traditional recipes from the ancient cuisine of the Amalfi Coast, including the secret Pesto Amalfitano and the delightful Fogliolino liqueur made from lemon leaves.

Whether you're a seasoned chef or a home cook, these recipes will bring a touch of the Amalfi Coast to your kitchen, allowing you to replicate the magic of Carlo’s culinary creations. 

Join Carlo De Filippo in celebrating the recipe of a life lived through food—beautiful, good, and unexpectedly wonderful.

Peak Season

  Peak Season Author : Emily Harrison One winter. One chance. One desire that can't be denied. Lola Maxwell isn't looking for love, she's barely looking up. Reeling from heartbreak and a life that's never quite made sense, she takes a last-minute job with holiday company Powder White, at Le Grenier, chalet hotel tucked deep in the French Alps. It's meant to be simple: work hard, stay out of trouble, and avoid any man with a crooked smile and a snowboard under his arm. Then Harley Nash walks in. Moody, magnetic, and impossible to read, Harley has made a name for himself on and off the slopes. Once a rising snowboarder with a reckless streak, now he's the ski team lead at Powder White, doing everything he can to keep things under control, including himself. The last thing he needs is a new recruit with fire in her eyes and chaos in her wake. But Lola's not easy to ignore. And Harley's not nearly as in control as he looks. As the season deepens, so d...

The New PSYCHOLOGY: A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition (B&W)

    The New PSYCHOLOGY: A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...: Abbreviated Edition (B&W)      480 Pages, 8.5X11”, Fully Illustrated These are the bits and pieces that make up a deep understanding of how our mind works. Welcome to the deep woods.     Psychology controls the biology of our brain. At the witch trials in Salem, when the accused were brought into the court, adrenaline and cortisol would have shot into the bloodstream of the spectators. Neurotransmitters would have surged through their brain. Their very brain waves would have shot up from 12 to 40 cycles per second. A P300 brain wave would have screamed “ALERT”. Their heart jumped.  A chill went up their spine. The girls began to shriek “Witch, Witch!”     We know this because the same thing happens in America today among those watching a Hollywood horror movie about witches, zombies, demons, murder and more. In varying degrees thi...

The Revenant's Mark

  The Revenant's Mark A dark historical fantasy novel set during the American Revolution Jacob Hawthorne was hanged as a traitor—forgotten by the cause he fought for, buried in a shallow grave by those he fought against. But death didn’t keep him. The forest brought him back. Now bound to an ancient and wild power, Jacob walks again as a revenant—something more than man, less than myth. Haunted by visions and a mysterious mark burned beneath his ribs, he joins two rebel soldiers on a perilous journey through war-torn colonies and spirit-haunted woods. As the Revolutionary War rages, a secret faction known as the Golden Circle seeks to harness the power of the forest spirits for their own ends—twisting the old magicks into a weapon neither crown nor colony can stop. Jacob must reckon with what he’s become, what he was brought back to do, and whether the soul of a dead man can still choose the right side. Epic in scope and grounded in grit,  The Revenant’s Mark  blends dark...
