Small and cosy, it is the place to go if you want to try the special local products at a price that is too good to be true. Saffron, lamb, marcetto cheese...; it is stuffed of DOP products, all from local producers, all carefully chosen. It is not just the in incredible quality of the ingredients that is stunning me. local cuisine can be a bit oily but the chef is somebody who has crealy attended a professional school and is using all the skills to make it work without being too heavy. All the flavours are beautifully preserved. Food is well presented and original without being too far from traditional in a costant research. Service is extremely friendly. Waiter guides you through cheese tray explaining the sequence in which it would be better to eat them to get all the experience. and don't get me starting on the price, with 30 euros you get the meal of a king. I want to be buried in this place!

The starters were an abundant mix of all the locals products and as main the carbonara was really good. Everything was so ABRUZZESE, typical food in a place surrounded by beautiful mountains. Moreover, the service was attentive, kind and helpful. Furthermore they do have gluten free options. Anche se mi aspettavo di trovare la vecchia atmosfera del Corridore, è stato Un pranzo con i fiocchi!!!
