Li Jalantuùmene - Monte Sant'Angelo (FG)

Li Jalantuùmene restaurant overlooks the characteristic Piazza de' Galganis, a sixteenth-century gem in the heart of the historic center of Monte Sant'Angelo, in the heart of the Gargano Park. The external walls with portions of light stone and the clean lines of the building integrate perfectly with the surrounding whiteness of the Junno district. The name of the restaurant, which in dialect means "The Gentlemen", is a true declaration of intent: to recall the elegance, honesty and elegance of times gone by, applying them to hospitality and service. Once you cross the threshold, the restaurant reveals its nature as a "home" characterized by a romantic and intimate atmosphere. Gegè Mangano is undoubtedly one of the most representative and charismatic chefs of Puglia, considered a true gastronomic ambassador of the Gargano. Its cuisine, strongly rooted in the Gargano micro-region, is open to contamination and modern techniques, to be unde...

La Pintadera - Millesimo (SV)











La Pintadera is based in Millesimo, in a quiet little square recently redeveloped with porphyry cube paving.

Chef Massimiliano Torterolo, already awarded a star right here in town, opened a signature delicatessen there with his wife Francesca, which initially provided nothing more than take-out.


Pintadera is a Sardinian name, in honor of Francesca's origins, for a circular-shaped stone archaeological find with a geometric design, found in very ancient settlements from the Nuragic period, which some believe was among the earliest lunar calendars, and others instead identify as a stamp for branding bread, somewhat like that of the Testaroli, to bring good luck to food.


La Pintadera is a very "sui generis" reality: it is not only a Gastronomy, it is certainly a Bottega of artisan excellence in the true sense of the word, and it is also, by reservation only, a tiny gourmet destination for 2/4 people (which may be a dozen soon) in which to taste an amazing signature cuisine.

Chef Massimiliano Torterolo, who in the recent past was awarded a Michelin Star in a small and defiladed town like Millesimo, is a true talent: from the recovery of almost lost recipes, from certain combinations and certain cooking, the hand of the ace shines through.

Massimiliano's cooking places a great deal of attention on the roundness of the dishes brought by the combination and dosage of acidic, sweet, crunchy and botanical components (the use of sprouts and herbs that have eaten the grazing cattle, for example).

La Pintadera's formula allows you to bring to your home simple gastronomic dishes executed at the state of the art, or to devote a lunch break to the discovery of some light but intriguing dishes, or, but only after proper reservation, to spend a gourmet evening worth remembering...

This is food culture.

It is drinking wonderfully, thanks to the pairing choices wisely made by Francesca, wife of the Chef.
