Carbonara Iglesias and The Roman Grip

Yayınlanan: 27.06.2018

Even though it sounds like it: In today's post, we are not talking about the name of a pasta dish and not about a traditional wrestling technique. 😉

The Cape Carbonara is located in the southeast of Sardinia near the town of Villasimius. That was our first destination of the day. The cape itself with the lighthouse is a military restricted area, so we could only approach the headland within visibility range, but we had a great time at the beach Spiaggia di Capo Carbonaria. Even though we felt like astronauts in their spacesuits among all the bathers in our thick motorcycle clothes, that didn't stop us from enjoying the beautiful atmosphere there. Sardinia's beaches are not only extremely numerous but often also stunning!

On the way to the cape - and also afterwards - the road ran along the cliffs directly by the sea. For enduring steadily rising temperatures, we were rewarded with breathtaking views again and again. Deep blue sea, impressive rocks, and all garnished with a magnificent flowering along the roadside (oleander in all colors and the beautiful bougainvillea).

From Carbonara now to Iglesias, our next navigation point. As beautiful as the section in the southeast was, the 80 km and one and a half hours on boring main roads in monotonous landscape were unpleasant, especially with temperatures of 36-37 degrees. In the area of the Sardinian capital Cagliari, there was also stop-and-go traffic from one traffic light to another. We were simmering in our own juice - let's get out of here! 😣

Near Iglesias, we made a brief stop and used an app to find the nearest and cheapest hotel. We found it in Portoscusi, a place near the Isola di San Pietro. Since most travelers from there go directly to the island, Portoscusi is pleasantly free of tourists in the evenings.

After waiting for way too long until the Pizzeria Ciccittu opened at 7 pm, which we passed with a walk along the impressive coastline of the town, we finally got to our "Roman Grip". That is the literal translation of "Pinsa Romana", the specialty of this restaurant. The pizza variation has a high, airy dough that comes out crispy from the oven. The Pinsa Romana comes already cut into handy pieces on the plate. That's probably why it has such an unusual name. Highly recommended!
