La locanda della Cupa

Once upon a time there was the farm yard: here the farmers met together to pound on the wheat. Here were made the products of fields. Here, where today there is, completely reorganized, an exclusive restaurant, born for the taste lovers: "La locanda della Cupa". A place of memory, where today can be found, among the memories and images from other times, the tastes, the smells, the colours always present of Salento's tradition.

We are in via Provinciale per Copertino, in San Pietro in Lama, in this ancient dwelling created by the Politi family and today led by professionists, whose precious advice the new restaurant makes use of. Two little halls of familiar and intimate atmosphere, furnished with style, invite to the tasting of the best dishes proposed by the chef and of delicious pizzas created by the "pizzaiolo".

The menu follows the rhythm of the seasons: in fact the recipes aim on the freshness of the ingredients. Genuinity and taste make the success of antipastos, exquisite first and second dishes. The cooking specialties are meat-based dishes cooked on coal, always special. The first dishes are made of "pasta fresca", hand-made. So are the desserts. The cellar is very interesting, which prefers the local production and proposes an accurate selection of about 150 labels.

"La locanda della Cupa" offers the best of the Salento's gastronomy, irresistible dishes of tradition art-revisited by the chef, flawless professionality and service.
