Bari
For street food:
Panificio Fiore
@daniellecohen
This is THE place to come and try the Focaccia Barese. It is a historic forno, located near the “Saint Nicola ” Cathedral and is one of the oldest bakery in town. They are famous for their focaccia, which they constantly make all day, made with cherry tomatoes and olives on top.
You can get a huge slice for about 2 euro, and eat just a few minutes away with a view of the Lungomare. Heavenly!

Maria delle Sgagliozze
@daniellecohen
This woman is famous in Bari for her little corner shop, selling handmade Sgagliozze, or fried salted polenta. This is a must try, super good street food snack to take on the go. A line may form, but don't worry it clears quickly. You can get a bag of about 10 pieces for 2 euro.

Le Sgagliozze di Donna Carmela
@daniellecohen
This is a very casual spot, but very local. Her "restaurant" is practically a little tent where Donna Carmela cooks just outside her home. She is a very warm, sweet lady who we took a orecchiette making class with, and then enjoyed some of her wonderful home-cooking dishes. She makes great sgagliozze (deep fried polenta with salt) .
She also cooks local recipes like orecchiette pasta with broccoli rabe and braciole (flank steak rolled up and cooked in tomato sauce, white wine, and garlic).

If you just want a giant ball of burrata to nom on, or are craving some taralli, panini, you name it! This Salumeria has you covered! There are a few tables/chairs outside too if you want to enjoy a glass of wine with your sandwich.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Danielle Cohen
Available for hire
Ciao! My name is Danielle and I'm a Californian from San Diego, who's been living full time in Florence, Italy since 2020. I studied in Florence in 2016 and absolutely fell in love with the food, culture, and history, and made it my mission to move back. I moved right before the pandemic, and staying here through all the lockdowns and pandemic life really helped me discover slow travel and find all of Italy's beauty, including lesser known gems, and off the beaten path travel spots.
During my three years in Florence, I have wrote for publications like The Florentine, done freelance marketing with restaurants and a travel agency, giving me high insight into the best destinations, foodie spots, and more.
I am here to help you make the most of your vacation in Italy with curated itineraries for every type of traveler and digital maps to help you enjoy THE BEST food each region has to offer. Let me do the work so you can just relax and enjoy, without any stress! I've had a very unique experience living in Italy the last 4 years, as I made my official move right before the pandemic, after visiting for years. Because of this I learned to travel locally and deeply throughout the numerous incredible destinations in Italy and for that I cater my travel services to finding the most local and mindful experiences, keeping true to discovering and appreciating Italy's culture.
