  • BARI - 3 DECEMBER 2019: A view of the historical center of  Bari, Italy, on December 3rd 2019.<br />
<br />
The orecchiette are Bari's trademark ear-shaped pasta.<br />
<br />
According to the mayor’s office, in mid October police inspectors busted a local restaurant for serving untraceable orecchiette, a violation of Italian and European Union regulations that require food in restaurants to be clearly sourced. The police fined the restaurateur and forced him to trash three kilos of pasta.<br />
The suspected orecchiette suppliers are permitted to sell small plastic baggies of pasta for personal use, but are not licensed to deal large, unlabeled shipments to restaurants. The fear in a city where many families have their go-to pasta lady, is that Italy’s zeal for regulations, however often ignored, risk shutting down a source of local pride that is one of Bari’s biggest tourist attractions.

The orecchiette are Bari's trademark ear-shaped pasta.<br />
<br />
According to the mayor’s office, in mid October police inspectors busted a local restaurant for serving untraceable orecchiette, a violation of Italian and European Union regulations that require food in restaurants to be clearly sourced. The police fined the restaurateur and forced him to trash three kilos of pasta.<br />
The suspected orecchiette suppliers are permitted to sell small plastic baggies of pasta for personal use, but are not licensed to deal large, unlabeled shipments to restaurants. The fear in a city where many families have their go-to pasta lady, is that Italy’s zeal for regulations, however often ignored, risk shutting down a source of local pride that is one of Bari’s biggest tourist attractions.

  • Naro, Italia - il 16 September 2012:  La Porta d'Oro (o Porta Vecchia) è l'unica rimasta delle sei porte che permettevano l'accesso alla città di Naro nel periodo medievale.a Naro, Italia, il 16 September 2012. La porta fu edificata insieme alle mura di cinta della città, che delimitavano un'area romboidale, nel 1263. Nel 1482 le mura furono restaurate ma nel XVIII secolo, venute meno le funzionalità difensive, furono man mano distrutte. La porta d'oro rappresenta uno dei pochi tratti della cinta muraria conservatisi pressoché intatti fino ai giorni nostri. Il suo nome deriva dalla ricchezza proveniente dai commerci degli ebrei che proprio vicino a tale porta avevano il loro ghetto e dalla gran quantità di frumento che, proveniente dalle campagne sottostanti, entrava in città attraverso tale porta.
