Calling all carnivores (or anyone seeking a break from seafood)!: skip lunch and save your appetite for a full-on Sardinian feast at this rustic farmstead 2km outside Cannigione. The endless parade of courses begins with bread, cheese, olives and homemade salumi, followed by soup, salad and copious amounts of roasted-to-perfection meats, finished off with glasses of homemade mirto or limoncino.
