Cagliari’ s natives are crazy about seafood and, if you do not only want to visit Cagliari but live Cagliari, you must try some of the local specialties where the locals go.

Among these are the kiosk/restaurants in the Poetto area. Originally born as very simple booths where fishermen would sell sea urchins, they slowly turned into sort of “trattorias”.

I would not really call them restaurants as the facilities and service are very basic (you eat and drink with plastic cutlery and plates) but the seafood is fresh and normally of excellent quality. The kiosks are usually very busy and noisy but fun! Specialties are off course the”bottarga”, sea urchins & cuttlefish but you will also find sea basses, sardines, sea breams etc. Everything is cooked with very few spices and flavorings, mostly roasted or grilled. My favourite off course pasta with sea urchins.

Enjoy!

Hey guys, we are back to London after 10 days in Sardinia and here are some tips for you (at the end, as usual pics and directions):

For a quick and delicious slice of pizza, do not miss “Federico Nansen” in Corso Vittorio Emanuele, n 320 (city centre). You can buy pizza by weight and take it away to eat or have it there if you can find a seat! This is a very popular place for the “Cagliaritani” where you can eat well for not much money and Stefania, Maurizio & Serena are extremely friendly. You can choose among so many toppings but do not miss the nutella’s pizza!

If you go there, tell them that Manuela & Luca from London sent you (they are really good friends of ours)…but do not expect any discount for it!

Enjoy!
