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.

Armonia - Alba (CN)











Armonia is the new fine dining restaurant recently opened in the heart of Alba, a stone's throw from Via Roma and Piazza Michele Ferrero.

The restaurant is large and modern.

The interior is pleasant, with well-chosen colors and well-spaced round tables.

The ceilings stand out, enlivened by ellipsoidal light fixtures.

The modern steel kitchen is partially visible through the opal glass of the serving hatch.


With Antonio Armentano and his restaurant Armonia, Alba has a new star.

Clear ideas, personality, talent and a happy hand are the main characteristics of this young chef who comes from the south and knows how to surprise us.

Young, shy and reserved, with two wide open eyes that enchant, almost on tiptoe, he shows you such an impressive and unexpected journey that you will ask yourself: "But where has this cook been hiding? Why has no one spoken of him?"

We, who love discoveries and who know how to recognize a quality cuisine, full of content and well presented, will fix it immediately.

Believe us, as "talent scouts" we are unlikely to make mistakes: Antonio Armentano will become a successful name and his address will be on the agenda of passionate gourmets, even in a "difficult" place like that of Alba.

For the moment, Antonio works alone in the kitchen, so the timing of the service may not be that of a Swiss watch: indulge and you will be rewarded with a great gastronomic journey that will make you want to come back, greedy for this mix of simplicity, experimentation, personality and refinement...

We drank very well and discovered some real southern delicacies.
