Apulian Cuisine by the Castle
Set just below the castle, Ristorante Pizzeria La Duchesca offers a menu rooted in Salento traditions, with dishes such as aubergine parmigiana, grilled octopus, and rustic bruschetta. The kitchen focuses on well-prepared, flavorful plates that go beyond standard tourist offerings. A thoughtful wine list and attentive, well-organized service contribute to a pleasant, unhurried dining experience, accompanied by subtle music and carefully considered details.
