Abruzzo
A casual restaurant that specialises in Abruzzo's classic street food, arrosticini. These charcoal-grilled lamb skewers are seasoned with olive oil and rosemary, and served wrapped in foil in ceramic jugs or mugs. Arrosticini’s best amici (friends) are bruschette and a glass of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo wine, both of which are listed on the restaurant's refreshingly short menu.
Liver, chicken and vegetarian skewers are also available.
