Dining by the Sea. Il Moletto Ostricheria Grill

Abstract

The paper investigates a specific ethnographic context, a restaurant in cen- tral-eastern Sardinia located on the seashore, facing an isthmus that delimits and at the same time opens to the infinity of water.

The food served gets, therefore, substantiated through the place in which is consumed while the place, in turn, fills it with meaning
