ristorazione — Fellbach · Baden-Württemberg
In the heart of Fellbach, just a few kilometres from Stuttgart, a trattoria brings the authentic character of Puglia to Germany. More than twenty years of family cooking, a wood-fired oven lit every day, and ingredients imported directly from southern Italy make up a story faithful to its origins.
The door at Bruckstrasse 7 opens onto a welcome that customers recognise at once: that of Giuseppe, known as Pino, owner and soul of the place. For more than twenty years he has greeted every guest in person, with the same warmth found in southern Italy. Reviews mention him by name: the friendliness and the passion for Puglian cooking can be felt even before sitting down.
The red-checked tablecloths and the intimate dining room hold recipes passed down through generations: homemade orecchiette with turnip greens and anchovies, Carbonara di Polipo (octopus carbonara) with egg yolk and pecorino, the signature dishes of a cuisine that makes no compromises. The ingredients — San Marzano tomatoes, Fior di Latte, Apulian specialities — come directly from Puglia, imported by name.
The wood-fired oven is the centre of gravity of the place. The dough rests for ninety-six hours, made with flour from Altamura: a precise choice, not a detail. Baked in the wood-fired oven, the result is a Neapolitan pizza that customers, even those just passing through, describe as hard to find elsewhere in Germany. The Made in Italy recognition came as confirmation of a method already well established.
This page tells of the full menu, the signature dishes and the opening hours of an authentic Puglian kitchen, open almost every day in the heart of Fellbach.
