Bar Gelateria Caffetteria Prometeo In Ripa teatina

23/08/2025: My wife and I stumbled upon this agriturismo by chance while touring inland Abruzzo. A beautiful place, with truly excellent traditional Abruzzese cuisine, but above all, local meat cooked in the Argentine style, called Asado. But perhaps the biggest surprise of all was when the owner explained to us why he cooks meat this way and his idea of a Sunday lunch, or at least a holiday lunch. We listened to a story of migrants and solidarity, a story that truly came from the heart and that deeply shaped him, to the point of being reflected in his vision of catering. We ate for a long time because the dishes were served to us along with all the other diners (he welcomed us even though we were a little late, so the appetizer was served immediately), then the first course, and then the asado served directly on a charcoal grill at the table to keep it warm. It felt like eating at a family celebration with relatives who came to visit on a Sunday when you haven't seen them for a long time. A restaurant with attention to detail. The care and passion this Italian-(or rather) Abruzzo-Argentine family has put into this magnificent place is immediately evident. Saturday lunch with a fixed menu Entrée 2 appetizers (pallotte and stew) Spaghetti alla chitarra with tomato and beef Argentine asado of Abruzzo beef Dolce Amaro and coffee €45 per person Bottle of local Cerasuolo wine €20

15/08/2025: An evening spent in a truly wonderful setting. Outdoor dining amidst the trees, strung with fairy lights, creates an unreal atmosphere. The food is excellent, and the service is friendly and efficient. An old sheep track has been impeccably and tastefully renovated. The glass structure used for cooking asado is a special feature.
