Welcome to our home. We’re Pasquale and Patricia. Here in Oliena, our osteria is an invitation to discover Sardinia through what we love most: food and hospitality. We opened Santa Croce in 2007. Since then, we’ve shared our family recipes and local produce here in the heart of Oliena. Pasquale & Patricia 02 / A TASTE OF OLIENA ## At the table, the Oliena way. A set menu rooted in Oliena’s traditions, with small daily changes to reflect the season. Everything is local or homemade, and carefully selected. From ravioli to roast suckling pig, this is the food we grew up with. OUR SET MENU ## Lunch at Santa Croce. Our home cooking, from the first taste to the last glass. A set menu shaped by fresh ingredients and the season. ## To begin Seasonal vegetables and our house-made cured meats. ## Ravioli in tomato sauce The pasta course at our table. ## Roast suckling pig A classic from Oliena’s culinary tradition. ## Savada & digestif A sweet finish, and a little longer around the table. Nepente di Oliena. We serve Nepente di Oliena, from our own production or selected local winegrowers, according to seasonal availability. Other dishes are available on request. Tell us your preferences and dietary needs, and we’ll plan your meal together. 03 / MADE BY PASQUALE ## Pasquale’s cured meats. Pasquale’s cured ham, sliced to order. Pasquale began making cured ham as a boy, learning recipes and closely kept family secrets. Each winter he selects the pigs himself and carries out every stage, from butchery and preparation to curing. Ham, sausage, guanciale: each cut has its own preparation and needs its own time. A craft learned through experience, passed down in the family and still practised by hand. Our little cellar, downstairs. The details that tell our story. 04 / THE PLACE WE CALL HOME ## Oliena, in the heart of Barbagia. Some places are best understood around the table. Barbagia is inland Sardinia: villages, mountains, craftsmanship and hospitality woven into everyday life. Oliena, at the foot of Monte Corrasi, is where our story begins. Illustrative map · Barbagia’s area is shown approximately. THE VALUE OF TIME ## A land of long lives. Central-eastern Sardinia is known for the longevity research that helped establish the concept of Blue Zones. It is also a story of family ties, community and everyday life. For us, belonging to this place is expressed in simple acts: preparing food, welcoming people and sharing. And making time for a conversation, even after the meal has ended. 05 / BEYOND THE TABLE ## Under the skies of the Supramonte. A DAY TO REMEMBER ## A shepherd’s lunch. A day in the mountains. A lunch that belongs to this landscape. The pale cliffs of Corrasi, holm oaks and Supramonte trails. We arrange excursions and guided visits to discover the region, with a shepherd’s lunch to share along the way. Tell us your preferred date and group size. We’ll plan the route, lunch and arrangements according to availability and conditions. OCCASIONS TO REMEMBER ## Your special occasions. A special lunch, a celebration, the people you care about. For events and catering, we start with your idea and plan the occasion together. WE’LL SEE YOU IN OLIENA ## See you in Oliena.
