La Graticola In Monteprandone

30/03/2026: I went for lunch at this lovely osteria with a charming fireplace, a cellar that feels like a cave, and a very quaint atmosphere. The food was simply delicious, I say simply because they use all the genuine products, many of which are homemade. The four of us had two triumphs of fried food, a platter of cured meats and cheeses accompanied by honey and various jams, and three first courses, including paccheri with Genoese sauce, cacio e ovo, and the "griglia" (a type of pasta served inside a pecorino cheese wheel with crispy pancetta). Wonderful is an understatement! A second course of baked potatoes, a dessert, two glasses of wine, water, and coffee, and we spent €32 per person. The only downside was that the place was packed. We waited a bit for the first courses and they brought them to us one at a time, so we didn't all eat together. But the deliciousness outweighed this small inconvenience. It's definitely worth a visit.
