The restaurant at Masseria Potenti has a “field to fork” approach, showcasing the best of Pugliese traditional cuisine with a twist. An innovator by instinct, Maria Grazia Di Lauro Tommasino has effected a reinvention of traditional Italian cooking inspired by the bounty of nature surrounding her. Sourcing her ingredients from the surrounding fields, local farms, and the Masseria itself, Maria-Grazia highlights the abundance and the excellence of the local products. Be it for a romantic dinner for two, a family dinner, a wedding or a celebratory dinner with 250 guests, we are always faithful to our philosophy of serving fresh and seasonal food.
Our secret ingredient? Simplicity combined with love. Many of the delicious products we serve during your stay are available to purchase; superb Primitivo, Fiano, and Rose all from our estate, a selection of conserves made from the fruit from the farm and local ceramics. We are also able to ship our products for you to enjoy on your return home. Or we can make up a nice package to send to your friends and family!
“La cucina è per me è il luogo della casa dove si trasmette amore e calore. Chi sceglie di trascorrere buona parte del proprio tempo in cucina ha la passione per la natura, rispetto per le piante, per gli animali e per l’uomo.
Generosità, gioia, curiosità ed amore sono gli ingredienti principali per un buon chef.
Un buon piatto deve trasmettere l’allegria con cui è stato preparato, deve suscitare la gioia in chi lo riceve perché capace di soddisfare sempre tutti i sensi.”
