Storico Bar Caffè Tripoli

This is a living guide to the very best places to eat and drink in Apulia&Matera. As I travel back to Puglia - which I do regularly - I will continue to update this list. If you purchase today, you will receive all future updates. Perfect for a first-timer, or someone who wants to go deeper. Recommendations cover major cities, like Bari, but also off-the-beaten-track options in the countryside that are destinations in their own right. Every place has been verified by me and visited multiple times. Tips for each restaurant include dishes to order and background about the place. I've even included some personal anecdotes to give extra color to each destination! Fun Fact: Last year I was featured on Delicious Destinations with Chef Andrew Zimmern as his personal guide to Puglia. Videos from our adventure included in this guide.
