Macelleria Braceria "Le Camene"

In the heart of Maruggio lies a culinary treasure that seamlessly marries the art of butchery with the magic of grilling: Macelleria Braceria "Le Camene". An ode to Apulia's deep-rooted love for meats and traditional cooking techniques, this establishment stands as a testament to flavour, freshness, and fiery passion. The very essence of "Le Camene" is its open concept. Upon entering, guests are greeted by the masterful displays of prime cuts, each hand-selected by artisan butchers for their marbling, texture, and quality. The macelleria, or butcher shop, showcases the finest offerings, from the robust 'salsiccia' (sausage) to the tender 'tagliata' (sliced steak), ensuring that each dish starts with impeccable ingredients. Venturing more profoundly, the braceria comes alive with roaring flames, casting a warm glow and filling the air with the unmistakable aroma of grilling meats. Here, age-old Apulian recipes meet the mastery of the grill. Whether a juicy 'costata' (ribeye steak) kissed by the embers or a skewer of 'Agnello' (lamb) grilled to perfection, the dishes celebrate simplicity and taste. But it's not just about the meat. "Le Camene" pays tribute to Apulia's bountiful produce, offering side dishes made from the freshest local vegetables, drizzled with golden olive oils and sprinkled with aromatic herbs.
