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...

Donna Selvatica - Neive (CN)











Donna Selvatica Restaurant is located in the heart of the beautiful old village of Neive, complemented by the panoramic suites of Locanda Borgo Vecchio for an overall gastronomic and hotel offering of the highest level.

The entrance to the Restaurant and that of the Locanda with panoramic suites are adjacent: a short flight of steps descends to Donna Selvatica.


As soon as you cross the threshold, you are struck by the understated elegance of the rooms, which are modern, warm and atmospheric.

The rectangular dining room is decorated in warm taupe tones, with two white sideboards on opposite sides and well-spaced tables that stand out against the beautiful parquet floors.

Prestigious collections of signature spirits are displayed in glass cases.

From the veranda terrace, the view stretches as far as the eye can see over the hills of Barbaresco, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its most prestigious crus, which you'll find right on the menu: Gallina, Albesani, Ovello, Montefico, Montestefano, Ronchi, Gaia Principe.


The restaurant Donna Selvatica impresses and convinces both for its thick cuisine, which presents the strict Langa tradition as well as some revisited and fish dishes, and for the philosophy of proposing, as an added value, a well-considered selection of the best Crus from the surrounding hills, all clearly visible from the panoramic dining room.

However, the splendid Cantina is not limited to the region alone, ranging from local excellences to those from beyond the Alps.

Gabriele Piscitelli's hand can be seen in every preparation, for his meticulous search for the best raw materials and his ability to combine flavors with mastery, enhancing each ingredient without ever masking it.

In our opinion, a stop at Donna Selvatica is almost a must if you are in the area: a refined and satisfying gastronomic stop, perhaps combined with a stay in one of the elegant suites, to enjoy the place to the full.
