Welcome to Little Black Book, a brand-new series from The Sunday Times Style. It's your quick-fire, highly curated passport to the world's most stylish cities. In each episode, we join global tastemakers as they provide their personal seal of approval on the hidden gems and under-the-radar spots that never make the guidebooks.
In our first episode, creative consultant Max Hurd takes us to his favourite city in Europe: Naples. Far from the "museum-ified" streets of Rome or Venice, Naples is a living, breathing city of "glorious chaos" and rich history. From the best local espresso and luxurious villas to the finest vintage treasure hunts in the Chiaia district, Max shares his personal guide to the Neapolitan magic that keeps him coming back.
