Vecchia Cantina In Tuglie

This is the kind of place where you can truly feel the passion behind the cooking. Every dish seems to be made with care and love for good food. The chef comes from a family of culinary professionals, so it’s no surprise that the quality and flavors are exceptional. We had the chance to try one of their specialty dishes—spaghettoni with shrimp tartare and shredded truffle—and it was absolutely divine! The combination of fresh seafood, rich truffle, and perfectly cooked pasta made for an unforgettable meal. If you’re planning to visit, I highly recommend making a reservation in advance, as this place is definitely worth it!

Osteria with typical Salento cuisine and excellent pizzas

The place is nice, the service is excellent and the food is also excellent.
