The main courses are represented by fish; lamb; suckling pig; the coratella of goat or lamb on the spit; lu casciu furriatu,cow cheese, melted and seasoned with honey; and la mazza frissa, fresh cream cooked on a pan. Li papassini, li casgiatini, lu pani e saba, are just a few of the delicious small cakes that local people sometimes eat as breakfast. Almost always these delicious products are accompanied by excellent wines such as Moscato Dolce, a sweet sparkling white wine and a fine, delicate flavor that is slightly bitter Vermentino di Gallura, the typical white wine of the region!
