Instant confirmation or on request: what actually changes
On the same page, two restaurants can behave in two different ways. The difference isn’t cosmetic: it’s whether the table is yours or not.

Where the listings come from, and why they’re sometimes wrong
No restaurateur asked to be here. That’s why the catalogue is broad, and it’s also why it goes stale.

«All verified»: what it means, and what it doesn’t
Here a review is tied to a meal that took place. It is an inconvenient rule — it shuts a lot of people out — and everything that «all verified» can promise lives inside it.

Eating in Foggia
Foggia is the Tavoliere, Italy's largest durum wheat plain: here pasta is raw material, not an ingredient.
The pasta
- Troccoli — square spaghetti cut with a *troccolo*, a grooved rolling pin;
- Orecchiette and cicatelli, with ragù or turnip tops;
- Pasta con la mollica, the humble dish par excellence: fried breadcrumbs instead of cheese.
From the Gargano
- Caciocavallo Podolico del Gargano, from free-ranging cattle, aged for years;
- The cardoncello mushroom, which grows wild here and is grilled over embers;
- Gargano citrus IGP — orange and lemon — grown along the coast;
- Eel and fish from the Lesina and Varano lagoons.
The dishes
Agnello a cutturiddo, pan-cooked wild greens, and pancotto with potatoes.
In the glass
Cacc'e mmitte di Lucera DOC and Nero di Troia, the grape named after a village in this province.
Opening hours and closing days change. The ones on the listings come from public sources and may be out of date. Where a restaurant confirms tables with us, the availability you see is the real one.
