Il Ritrovo degli Ostinati In Massafra

14/01/2025: The best Chinese restaurant in the area

03/01/2025: The dishes are taken care of down to the smallest detail, from the choice of ingredients to the presentation on the plate, with generous portions and honest prices. Among the dishes I tried: • Spring rolls (2 portions), • Puffed shrimp powder, • Wan Ton, • Steamed vegetarian ravioli, • Grilled vegetarian ravioli, • Steamed meat ravioli, • Rice spaghetti with grilled meat and vegetables, • Udon with vegetables (or wheat noodles with vegetables), • Crispy Cantonese spaghetti, • Chicken with almonds. Each dish was a journey into the authentic flavors of China. From the soft and tasty ravioli to the crispy Cantonese spaghetti, everything was delicious and prepared with a skill that transports you on a one-way ticket to authentic and original cuisine. But it's not just the food that makes this restaurant special: the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, almost familiar. The scene that stuck with me the most was that of the owner, who, despite the chaos of a Friday evening full of customers, found time to pick up a child who was playing among the tables. He smiled at him sweetly and put him back on the ground gently, before returning to work with the same energy and dedication. A simple gesture, but which tells a lot about the love with which this place is managed. Every corner of the restaurant seems to tell a story, with decorations that recall Chinese tradition without ever being excessive. The staff, despite the busy evening, always found a smile or a kind word for the customers. In short, it is one of those places that not only feeds you, but makes you feel pampered. I will definitely return, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to immerse themselves in an authentic and satisfying culinary experience.
