Porta di Basso
Peschici, Italy
Porta di Basso occupies a dramatic position above the sea in Peschici. Chef Domenico Cilenti draws on the Gargano’s fish, vegetables and wild ingredients, shaping them into two tasting-menu routes, including a vegetable-focused option. The setting is a strong reason to build an evening around the restaurant, but the food deserves equal attention. Book ahead and discuss dietary needs directly: this is a fixed-menu experience, with no à la carte alternative to assemble on arrival.
