Jebali Formaggi

Tunisia


This tiny hole-in-the-wall shop makes for a surprisingly wonderful pit stop for stocking up on gourmet Italian cheeses for a picnic at Dougga or in Testour's town square. The friendly staff will let you sample any of the goods on display, which include cheese mixed with peppercorns and spicy harissa, plus there's fresh ricotta and mozzarella in the fridge.

It's 7km northeast of Testour.
