Trattoria Lo Romanì

Trattoria Lo Romanì gets a lot of things right. The setting is stunning, with pastel coloured walls and gentle lighting setting the mood, the service is friendly and attentive, and the food is great. But what it does best is the porchetto, a traditional Sardinian spit-roasted pork dish, which is better here than anywhere else.

Dining

Famed for its rock lobsters, Alghero is a treat for lovers of fresh fish and seafood, and its Catalan-Italian mix makes for some excellent and unusual dishes. Salami and pecorino (sheep milk cheese) are produced locally. Malloreddus, with sausage and tomato sauce, is the standard Sardinian pasta dish. Local honey appears on most desserts. Try gattò, made from almonds, honey and orange peel. The local red and white wines are excellent, too.
