This stylish glass pavilion along Brindisi's seafront is the showcase restaurant for Puglia's Tenute Rubino winery. Local seafood like octopus and tuna is harnessed for the concise menu and there's also more hearty fare like gourmet burgers. The attentive waitstaff have good recommendations on wine matches from Tenute Rubino's diverse range. See www.tenuterubino.com for details of cellar tours.
