王子的花园酒店

A lively bistro with a youthful feel, set in the heart of the town centre and featuring a pleasant outdoor terrace overlooking the square. In the kitchen, chef-owner Della Croce presents a menu that strikes a pleasing balance between meat and fish, always guided by careful respect for the seasons. Among the dishes most appreciated by the Inspector is the excellent octopus alla marinara: expertly cooked in two stages and full of flavour, it is served with cherry tomatoes, garlic, olives and capers, bringing out the character of the ingredient with both simplicity and skill.

In the heart of the seaside area, within a pedestrian zone, the historic *Società Operaia di Mutuo Soccorso* (SOMS) is now a delightful venue with a cozy, slightly contemporary dining room. It offers cuisine tied to Abruzzese traditions, both land and sea, executed with originality. The discreet and knowledgeable service, including the wine selection, along with an outdoor space to enjoy pleasant summer evenings, completes the experience.

From the coast, you take a winding road uphill to this family-run trattoria which boasts sea views from its terrace. Apart from the salted cod, the menu only features meat dishes, with a focus on simple, traditional Abruzzo specialties. These include arrosticini (skewered grilled meat), fragrant mushrooms, barbecued meat and delicious “pizza dogge”, the latter a type of layered dessert with sponge cake, custard, confectioner’s cream and Alkermes liqueur. The concise wine list also focuses on the Abruzzo.
