Our fabulous host, Antonio, in Locorotondo (Puglia region - southeastern Italy) spoiled us many times over with incredible meals and beverages! We drank local wine, sampled his homemade cognac and mirto (made from myrtle berries from a bush outside his home), and his mom made a fabulous dinner. Here are some highlights!

| A dish cooked by his mom: pasta (a typical type from Puglia) with mushrooms! |

This deserves a whole post, but for now just this picture:
cooking on the fireplace is very common and traditional, and so tasty! |
 |
| A local dessert made by Antonio's mom: a wonderful puff pastry filled with a light cream |
 |
Another local liquor, made with infused herbs (tastes like Christmas!),
with Antonio's dad in the background (he has a great sense of humor! :) |

| Paola's fabulous risotto with saffron! |
