The best value for money at Borgo Antico Bistrot, in Ostuni

After having trudged to visit the cathedral of Ostuni and admire the unmissable Porta del Salento, we stop at Borgo Antico Bistrot.

We come here of course for their divine burrata, accompanied by a choice of local charcuterie, other cheeses from the region or grilled vegetable platters drizzled with olive oil.

But we also come here for the rest: its breathtaking view of the heights of the city, its breathtaking sunset, its loupiottes and its colorful cushions, its well-stocked cocktail menu as well as for its very good value for money. .

Count on average 4 euros for a sandwich and 6 euros for a drink.

Take away at Ammorsi, in Altamura

Imagine the encounter between a burger and a runny burrata.

This is what the owners of Ammorsi, a small sandwich shop located in Altamura in the heart of Puglia, have come up with.

A fast-food that does not look like much, the kind of address only known to locals where you would hardly have dared to venture, except knowing that the

paninis

are among the best in the region.

You order your sandwich to take away and enjoy it a few meters away, in front of the incredible Santa Maria Assunta cathedral.

The most traditional at Caseificio Dicecca, in Altamura

Always Altamura, an obligatory stop this time at Caseificio Dicecca, an

incredibile cheese factory,

to put it in Italian style, which has existed since 1930. It is now the third generation of master cheesemakers in the family - Vito, Paolo, Angelo, Vittoria and Maristella - who holds the reins of the company, always following the same precepts as when it was created: tradition, know-how and innovation.

Here, the burrata is available at will,

piccolini

, for micro-hungers or just like that, simply to taste a bite, larger ones to enjoy on a carpet of colorful tomatoes at lunch or dinner or larger again to prolong the pleasure to share...

The most gastronomic at Orto, in Monopoli

The gastronomic journey continues this time in the direction of Monopoli, the hidden gem of Puglia, at Orto, in an incredible refined Mediterranean courtyard.

An unmissable opulent address where you can taste cuisine that is always well presented and where the products give pride of place to the region.

When they are not grown directly on site, as is the case for part of the vegetable garden and the orchard.

There is a menu that varies with the seasons and an exceptional burrata.

The most generous at Incontro Di Gusti, in Porto Cesareo

Last step, and not the most recommended for those who pay attention to their figure, at Incontro Di Gusti.

The burrata is creamy and (ultra) generous.

It is served as an antipasti with bruschetta and julienned tomatoes, drizzled with olive oil and garnished with basil.

It is also found overlooking a margarita pizza cooked over a wood fire, as only the Italians know how to do it.

Bon appetite
