Accommodation type description
The Restaurant La Vecchia Vieste celebrates the true gastronomy of Gargano and Vieste. Wisely combining exclusively local ingredients, the chef brings to the table delicacies with the authentic flavours of the place.
The Restaurant La Vecchia Vieste opens its doors to the public in 1981 following a conservative restoration of the premises to the work of the master stonecutters of Monte Sant'Angelo. The environments respect, therefore, the authentic aspect of the place that was originally intended to be the guard post from where the knights guarded the South Door of the city.
Furniture, lighting and decorations transport the visitor in an elegant, suggestive and at the same time welcoming atmosphere. The location is in fact also appropriate to celebrate special occasions as romantic dinners and business lunches or small ceremonies such as baptisms and communions.
But the real experience starts with the first course that arrives on the table. The menu of the restaurant offers a wide choice of dishes. From the starters that honour the flavours of the sea and of the land, to the first and main courses, prepared exclusively with fresh seafood and local meat. Every section of the menu proposes a speciality of the chef that enriches it and makes the offer even more special. You can also taste local cheese and end this taste experience with sweet delicacies rigorously handmade.
A real meal can be defined truly complete only if accompanied by the right wine that enhances the flavours. The wine list of the restaurant offers to the customers the best selection of red, white and rosé wines coming from the most famous wine cellars of Puglia. The proposal of Champagne, Brut, Prosecco and sweet wines meets the demands of those who want to celebrate a special moment.
The experience of discovering a new place is not really complete without having tasted the typical products and having being delighted by the traditional recipes. The Restaurant La Vecchia Vieste proposes to accompany anyone arriving here in this culinary journey.
