Hand-thumbed ear-shaped orecchiette with bitter turnip greens (cime di rapa), garlic, chili, and anchovy; cavatelli with mussels and white beans; or baked terracotta rice, potatoes, and mussels (tiella barese) (€8–€12). In southern Italy's sun-drenched climate around Acquaviva delle Fonti, kitchens rely on cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil, durum-wheat semolina pasta, wild oregano, capers, and wood-fired bread ovens.
Focaccia barese topped with crushed tomatoes, olives, and oregano straight from wood-fired bakery pans (€3–€5), deep-fried panzerotti pockets stuffed with mozzarella and tomato (€2.50), and bombette (cheese-stuffed pork neck rolls) grilled to order at butcher-shop stoves (fornelli pronti, €10–€15).
Cream-filled burrata and stracciatella, braided caciocavallo podolico cheese, crunchy fennel-and-olive-oil taralli rings, dense Altamura semolina bread, extra-virgin olive oil from ancient groves, and Primitivo, Negroamaro, and Susumaniello wines.
In small towns, locals buy meat directly from the butcher counter at 8:00 PM and have it wood-roasted on the spot at a fornello pronto, eating at paper-covered tables with a carafe of house red wine. In Acquaviva delle Fonti (pop. 20,523), neighborhood bars, bakeries (forni), and trattorie across Bari follow traditional regional dining hours—ask locally for the weekly market morning and patron-saint festival date.
