Lecce is a small town in the southern region of Puglia, Italy. Like most towns in Italy, it’s got a lot of beautiful architecture and history despite its small size. Not only is it bustling in the summer and a quick drive from multiple beaches, but it also has several regional dishes that you must try during your stay.

Caffe Leccese

Named after Lecce where it originated and continues to be most available, Caffe Leccese is a coffee drink perfect for the summer heat. It’s an espresso poured over ice, with a special almond milk syrup layered beneath. Mixed together, it’s perfectly cool and sweet. If you visit Avio Bar, which belongs to the family who invented the drink, you’ll find an even better version of it with a layer of creamy shaken espresso.

Pasticciotti

When you order your Caffe Leccese, you should absolutely pair it with a Pasticciotto. This custard-filled treat also originates in Lecce, and is often eaten for breakfast alongside coffee. Its original purpose was to use up leftover cake batter, so the pastry is cakey and crumbly with a perfect caramelized crustiness on the outside.

Negroamaro and Primitivo Wines

Negroamaro and Primitivo are two wine grapes native to the Puglia region. They are most commonly and successfully grown there due to the climate and have been associated with the area for nearly a thousand years. They are both delicious dark red wines that are worth trying while you’re closest to their origins.

Italy is one of the most popular countries among travelers and it’s not difficult to understand why. From its capital Rome to many different cities and small towns, Italy has a lot to offer to anyone looking for an adventure, a lesson in history, beautiful beaches and nature, and many other things. If you’re looking for some lesser-known destinations in Italy for your next trip, these cities are the real hidden gems.

Alghero

While you can enjoy its beauty all year long, Alghero is a perfect destination for a summer vacation. Located in Sardinia, this island city has cobbled streets and beautiful, colorful buildings, plenty of museums and churches, and many different stores for the best shopping experience.

Gaeta

Locals often head to Gaeta for vacations, but you’ll rarely meet international tourists in the city. We encourage you to visit the Lazio region and Gaeta as it’s only a two-hour drive from Rome or Naples and has so much to offer.

Lecce

Lecce is the capital of Salento and a city with many historical and cultural attractions. It’s often called the Florence of the South because of its significant historical importance. The architecture, streets, museums, restaurants, and shops here promise a vacation of your dreams.
