This salad comes from the incredibly beautiful island of Capri, in the Bay of Napoli in Italy. The people of Capri adopted this classic tri-color combination of tomato, mozzarella and basil and called it their own. Make sure to always use the freshest ingredients possible, and this salad's flavors will burst in your mouth.
Whisk the lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil to blend. Set the dressing aside.
Cut the regular tomatoes into 1/4-inch-thick slices, and the plum tomatoes into wedges. Cut the cherry, grape and teardrop tomatoes in half. Arrange the tomatoes and cheese on a platter. Drizzle the dressing over. Sprinkle with the basil and additional salt and pepper to taste, and serve.
