Do it right.. have a Caprese salad!! Fresh mozzarella slices, tomato, basil, salt pepper oliveoil. Tada!

It's like asking why French Onion and Provolone cheese go together. DUH! It's just does!

Ugh just the thought of Caprese salad make me want to vomit.
I had a 20yr no-vomit streak going... ala Seinfeld.
Wife and I went out to dinner... dropped $200, I had a Caprese salad for an appetizer. We get home and I puke it all up.
$100 in the toilet bowl and I KNOW it was the Caprese salad. My stomach told me so.

I love tomato, but I'm not too fond of non-melted mozzarella.

depends, if its french or spanish feta..yes. On the other hand if it's Greek or Bulgarian... no.

I prefer twisted cheese and buffalo milk parmesan.

Greek Feta is the best, by far. Never had spanish feta.
