Like many, we were passing through Ostuni. But we craved something nice. As a tourist it is easy to eat street food, or tavola calda, or osteria, and that can be good, but sometimes you need to slow down and enjoy it all.
Porta Nova is one of the places you eat to savor the experience. It is fine dining from beginning to end.
We were greeted warmly, seated and well served.
Bread selection is wonderful. The amuse bouche was veloute of pumpkin with chestnuts and mushrooms. Amazing!
I had the local fish crudo (pictured) was delicate thinly fileted local fish with red pepper corn. Delicious! My wife enjoyed the mussels which were perfectly prepared.
I had roasted full body local fish which came with vegetables (pictured). My wife had the orcchietti with rape. Such execution is noteworthy.
A local white wine was the perfect partner for everything.
Plus you have the incredible views (pictured) and my poor photos don't do it justice.
Overall a wonderful experience!
