Experience the sweet and savory side of Italy at the Domenica della Prugna festival in Cabia, Arta Terme! Held on the last Sunday of September, this event celebrates the humble plum, a fruit traditionally used to make the potent Slivovitz liqueur. Wander through the historic courtyards of the village, sampling an array of plum-infused dishes with a convenient coupon system, and even take a guided tour of the local distillery.
Prepare your taste buds for a unique culinary journey! The festival offers an array of dishes where plums take center stage. Start with a plum tartlet aperitif, then dive into hearty first courses like Cjarsons di Cjabie, gnocchi with plums, or orzotto with pancetta cracklings and plum sauce. For main courses, savor pork medallions with cabbage in plum sauce or a delicious pork roast sandwich with onion and plum chutney. Don't forget dessert, with crepes topped with plum ice cream, and a traditional coffee with Slivovitz to finish.
