THE FACTS ABOUT DA TUCCINO

Italy Puglia

Roger says: 'Da Tuccino looks like all the seafood restaurants along the coast of Puglia, but its interpretations of regional fish dishes really set it apart. The waiters give you a friendly welcome, seaside-style, and you sit outside on the terrace above the sea. Everyone's there - children, taxi-drivers, you name it. We ate fantastic raw tuna that we hadn't had elsewhere (which went in the book), served with lemon and thick-cut bruschetta, and orechiette pasta with clams.'
