"This place is a little off the beaten path (if that is possible in little Lecce) and was recommended by the owner of my apartment as well as a few artists in a local art gallery. I sat outside so did not have the distraction of the inside TV (complained of by other Tripadvisor contributors), and I ate well. I tried three dishes, all pugliese I think and bearing little resemblance to the tuscan foods I am far more familiar with. La cucina povera--or at least what I ordered--is simpler, less fried, less green vegetables. 0n the recommendation of the NY Times travel section, I tried ceci e tria (short fat pasta pieces mixed with garbanzos) in a thin tomato and olive oil based sauce that I liked very much, especially when dipped with the local grain-based bread that was my favorite part of the meal! then a piping hot bubbling mozzarella topped with prosciutto or speck which, by itself would have been all I needed. It was, as expected, salty and filling. Thank god for the white wine that was recommended (I asked for and received a glass, not bottle, though admittedly I asked in Italian) and got a local wine that I loved. Perfect for the dinner. I ordered--but it turned out did not NEED--a total of three dishes and powered on through the final course of fresh, not frozen, prawns. Ending with a very strong disgestivo bearing a disconcerting resemblance to mercurochrome. Perfect! The waiter was helpful though a man of few words--I liked my experience there and lumbered home to sleep for 13 hours."
