DESSERTS
We draw inspiration for our desserts far and wide, and they’re not always traditional. In the “poor” Apulian cuisine, sweets and desserts were reserved for the traditional festive occasions only, simple recipes based on wheat, sugar, eggs and oil, and for the religious holidays they’re always available.
All the other desserts are prepared daily, and exclusively by us, and are always much appreciated by our patrons.
