La Tartaruga Tobago

Location :

Named after the giant leatherback turtles that nest on nearby shores, La Tartaruga is an Italian restaurant catering for families and casual diners.
Offering a choice of al fresco dining on our covered terrace or in our indoor restaurant, we serve only Italian cuisine: home made pasta, fish and rock lobsters, in-house desserts and Gelato. Vegetarian options are available. Herbs are home grown, breads are home baked, and only the finest olive oils, olives and cheeses are imported from Italy, while local ingredients are sourced from the best suppliers on the island.
Our award winning wine cellar brings the glory of Italy's famed wine regions to the tranquil shores of Tobago.

  "Paccheri di Gragnano con gamberi e calamari al pomodoro e capperi!"

  Paccheri pasta is made near Napoli with special durum flour and using handcrafting methods for milling the grain as well as for brass wire-drawing the dough.The paccheri in our recipe are black because they are made with squid ink. Gamberi is shrimp and it joins calamari in a tomato and capers sauce.

  And that was your Italian food lesson for the day. Lol... Go ahead and tag a foodie friend of yours who you know would LOVE to try this!
