Sardinia (the anglicized name, Italians call it Sardegna) is one of Italy’s major islands. While everyone knows Sicily – and it 100% lives up to the hype! – Sardinia isn’t on travelers’ radars on the same level.

Typical dishes

🦐Seafood! Anything straight from the sea. Shrimp, clams, fish, squid, and even sea urchin show up on almost every menu! As a fish & seafood lover, I ordered something from the sea at every lunch and dinner, and I loved every bite! When in doubt, ask the staff what’s best. They’ll steer you right.

🍖Porceddu is another classic! Essentially it’s the Sardinian take on a suckling piglet. It’s delicious and you should order it from a place specializing in it!

🥔Culurgiones is a stuffed pasta that tastes like a cross between ravioli and pierogi. They’re traditionally stuffed with potatoes, pecorino cheese, and a touch of mint!

🥘Another classic is called fregola: basically a giant version of cous cous. It’s usually served in a tomato sauce with clams—definitely a must-order.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Amateur Italian, travel advisor, and adventurous eater! I’m a travel creative living in small town northern Italy, and I've been planning travel for over 15 years. I've lived on three continents and visited over 40 countries, so I'm passionate about helping travelers experience the best of a location, no matter where! I love both/and travel: I want to see the big sights AND the local hangouts, the big cities AND the small towns. I’d love to help you do it too! If you’re going to Rome for the first time, you don’t need me to tell you to see the Colosseum. But you might want me to tell you if it’s better as a guided tour or on your own, what add-on’s are worth the money, and what are the extra secret things your ticket can get you! My favorite part of travel is eating well: finding the local haunts, tasting a new wine, and trying the local dishes. Amazing food doesn't have to be expensive: sometimes the best of a place is in the street food! But if it is a splurge, I'll make sure it's worth every penny. I'd love to work with you to create the trip of your dreams!
