Ristorante da Bruno In Alghero

18/10/2024: This Agriturismo was recommended by our Airbnb hosts. The only daunting part of the experience was the long, steep road to reach it. However, the view over La Ciaccia as the sun set was breathtaking, and the perfect dramatic introduction to a splendid evening! On this unusually cool evening there were only 4 or 5 other tables occupied and my friend and I had a marvelous ‘front row’ seat right at the glass wall overlooking the terrace. The dining room is comfortable and modern-rustic, decorated with beautiful traditional baskets and art work. I did not catch the names of most of the dishes served, unfortunately. Our waiter spoke excellent English compared to my struggling Italian! The first offerings were a Salumi board of meats, cheeses and a delicious onion jam, artichokes and olives, a mushroom and cheese platter, and a porridge-like dish that paired well with the rich and salty flavors. Next was a gnochetti and tagliatelle with excellent sauces. The server kindly returned the onion jam when the porceddu (roast suckling pig) and potatoes was served. There may have been salad in there somewhere but I was almost bursting by then! The dessert was the traditional seada (deep fried semolina dumpling filled with ricotta and a hint of lemon, drizzled with honey) and despite how full I was, the aroma of the yeasty fried dough was seductive and it was delightful! The finale was a shot of mirto, whose spicy heat did a nice job as a digestif. A singularly amazing and delectable experience! All for €45!

08/09/2024: Una conferma! A distanza di 3 anni siamo ritornati in questo agriturismo e la qualità e la varietà del menu è sempre ottima! Anche se non abbiamo potuto godere della meravigliosa vista a strapiombo a causa del maltempo, ci siamo trovati benissimo. Consigliato!
