Buonvento

Abruzzo


Books help furnish the rooms at Buonvento (great stacks of them piled up on the floor) along with avant-garde art and a global array of souvenirs from miniature Buddhas to vintage phones. The food is more of an Abruzzo affair – simple and economical dishes that rarely break €10.

Peruse the blackboard for chitarra (Abruzzo-style spaghetti) and ragù, pesto and courgette lasagne, and lamb cooked multiple ways. The restaurant is split into several small rooms to give a feeling of intimacy.
