I Sassini In Gioia del colle

The atmosphere is a bit spartan, but you're eating in a typical Apulian farmhouse, after all everything is good and locally sourced. I recommend you stop by to eat locally sourced food and taste typical Apulian products.

Rustic and welcoming atmosphere, traditional Apulian cuisine, all well-made. The road to the restaurant isn't the best, and there's virtually no signage. Recommended for gatherings with friends and/or family.

We stumbled upon this restaurant in Puglia by pure chance while looking for a spot for Saturday lunch — and it turned into an unforgettable culinary adventure. For just €40 per person, we were treated to a true feast. The meal began with two types of fresh bread, followed by two kinds of soft cheese and slices of cured meats per person. Then came a shared selection of delicious antipasti: fried meat, mushrooms, chickpea mousse, and baked eggplant with parmesan. Next, we each received a flavorful cannolo filled with meat, followed by a generous bowl of orecchiette with meat sauce. The main courses included a perfectly cooked beef tagliata with parmesan and rucola and grilled salsiccia served with potatoes and salad. To finish, they brought out a variety of sweets, fresh fruit, coffee, and a shot of amaro. Water and bottle of local wine were also included throughout the meal. The food was rustic, abundant, and made with heart — a perfect example of southern Italian hospitality. Highly recommended if you're looking for an authentic, generous dining experience.
