Your passport to the authentic, sun-kissed flavors of Southern Italy.
Crafted with love, straight from the heart of Italian tradition.
In the heart of the "heel" of the Italian boot lies a land extraordinarily rich in culinary traditions: Apulia. Every sweet tells a story of family, passion, and genuine ingredients.
Apulia is more than just a region: it's an emotion to savor. Among ancient olive trees, grandmothers kneading by hand, and sun-drenched days, sweets are born that speak of love, patience, and simplicity. A journey through authentic flavors, family memories, and the scents of Southern Italy.
Arco Basso in Bari Vecchia.
Beneath these arches, in Bari Vecchia, the skilled hands of local women pass down ancient gestures. Here, tradition takes shape every day, like a ritual repeated for generations.
When the New York Times published the provocative article "A Crime of Pasta," written by Jason Horowitz, the world discovered a small but significant paradox: the tradition of handmade orecchiette in Bari Vecchia was at risk of clashing with modern rules.
But Apulia responded with pride, bringing that tradition all the way to New York at the NYT Travel Show, alongside Nunzia, who every day prepares her orecchiette under the arches of Arco Basso, just as it has been done for generations.
That "crime of pasta" became a symbol of identity and passion, capable of telling the story of our land with a single gesture.
