Maria delle Sgagliozze In Bari

Deep-fried polenta sounds like an unusual dish, so we, of course, wanted to try it. We asked for a smaller portion (half), but they didn't want to sell it, and we were forced to buy 10 pieces. They deep-fry it, then put it in a paper bag and put salt on top. However, only the first 2 or so pieces are actually salty (and taste like popcorn, interestingly), but others were pretty bland tasting. We didn't finish the portion.

Most crunchy polenta cakes ever found! Wish they would sell some parm or other add ons to boost flavor profile more.

It is worth visiting for the atmosphere and to check out the local delicacy, which in my opinion does not impress with its taste. Very salty crust.

€2 for 12 pieces of fried polenta. Overall, a disappointing visit for us. Unfortunately the hype is too big again. The fried polenta tastes very boring or like nothing. Service/cook annoyed and uncaring.

Sgagliozze or fried polenta, something my nona made when I was little. And still surprises, a definite must go. Very tasty and although seemingly plain, it actually brings a surprise

Fried polenta might be a specialty in Bari but it tastes pretty boring. Like too hot, fat , salted popcorn

Production of typical street food from Bari, namely sgagliozze and popizza, cooked and served.

Excellent flakes, eaten hot... we waited very little to taste them. The price was excellent, in fact for 10 flakes we only spent 2 euros.
