With soft white tones and unadorned walls in the dining room the chef puts the art on the table, and reinterprets Basilicata’s classic “peasant” dishes using the area’s organic ingredients. 19 0
Sample some Aglianico del Vulture at a winery, enjoy upscale meals at some classy eateries (or home-style fare at a trattoria), and the slow-paced dolce vita that southern Italy is known for. 13 0

Don’t be put off by the unassuming exterior, because inside it’s a blend of old-world appeal and sleek modern style, and keeps that concept running through the menu, too. Chef Giuseppe Misuriello guided his other restaurant, Locanda Severino in Campania, to a Michelin star while keeping his hometown Osteria in excellent standing, and has chalked up awards from Italian press and culinary organizations. He melds simple ingredients with innovative twists, serving them with eye-pleasing style, like handformed cavatelli pasta with chickpeas that ramps up with local chestnuts and shaved forest truffles. With a selection of fish, meat and vegetarian dishes, they’re all beautifully plated. Tip: If the weather is fine, book a table in the hidden garden out back. 8 0
In northern Basilicata’s volcanic wine country at the foot of Monte Vulture, @cantinedelnotaio is one of the region’s most beautiful wineries. 17 3
