Lucanian flavours, a journey into taste

Matera is also a destination to be savored slowly.

Here Lucanian cuisine combines poor ingredients and intense flavors: Matera DOP bread, orecchiette with turnip tops, legumes, bran peppers, farmhouse cheeses and Vulture wines.

Nei Sassi, antichi forni e grotte ospitano oggi ristoranti e trattorie dove riscoprire ricette tradizionali reinterpretate in chiave contemporanea. Le Dimore dei Mercanti possono consigliarti locali selezionati, esperienze di degustazione e percorsi gastronomici a pochi passi dal boutique hotel.

After a day among alleys and rock churches, sitting at the table becomes the perfect opportunity to really get to know the area through its flavours, its stories and Lucanian hospitality.
