40° Parallelo — Restaurant in Otranto

Sandwiches are tasty, but portions are way too small. If you order octopus, you'll pay 14€ for about 1 finger worth of octopus (30ish grams) inside a patty. We ended up effectively paying 42€ for not even 100g of octopus.

Service is great, and atmosphere could be better, since sitting is very high, and wooden table is sticky. If you decide to sit here, I recommend you throw the box right away, since wind will probably blow it off the table.

Also, they were 45 mins late to open the store, so we sat by the sea, which was no issue for us. But if you plan your time tightly, do not rely on their opening times.
