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...

Manuelina - Recco (GE)

After 137 years of business and the succession of four generations of owners, Manuelina has become a true institution for all lovers of good food, so much so that it is the first natural and immediate association with the name of the town of Recco.
Located in a decentralized position, just a few meters from the crossroads where the state road coming from the highway ends, Manuelina looks like an elegant Ligurian villa structured in several separate bodies: the restaurant, the Taste Hotel and the Focacceria Bistrot.
The entrances of the Taste Hotel and Restaurant and the Focacceria are opposite each other.
The interiors are full of eye-catching details, starting with the aquarium with shellfish and the kitchen visible through the glass window.
The large dining room has marble floors, a ceiling with large wooden beams and a collection of Piatti del Buon Ricordo, a circuit of which Manuelina is a member.
Since its inception in 1885, Manuelina's has become an inescapable place of worship for any true foodie.
If Recco's Focaccia al Formaggio is a rare treat to be sought out carefully, Manuelina's is definitely worth a special trip.
But beware. Manuelina is not only "la" Focaccia al Formaggio, but also a restaurant of terroir cuisine with flair - you'll realize this when you taste the legendary Pansotti or the rare Cappon Magro - and contemporary cuisine of impeccable quality, where you'll always find the freshest fish and shellfish.
The creative touches are there, but so well thought out and calibrated that they never detract from the feeling of tasting the best of the region, cooked to perfection.
The formula that has put hotel, restaurant and trendy focacceria side by side is definitely a winner and the result of a time-honored family tradition.
