O Vicolo 'E L'Alleria — Restaurant in Battipaglia

A real hidden gem. Thoroughly recommended. The place reconstructs the kitchen of the owner's grandparents, with original furniture and a "old days" feelings. The food is top notch, both in terms of quality and price. The menu changes following the seasons and the daily shop of the owner. We had local delicacies like "o pere e o muss" and "pasta e patan", together with the signature meatballs in tomato sauce.
