One of Sulmona's best restaurants, the 'old wall' is notable for spot-on Abruzzese fare such as wholewheat pasta with lentils and guanciale (cured pork jowl). The rest of the menu – especially the bits involving sausage and mushroom – is wonderfully executed, and even the pizza is well above average.
The cacio e pepe (pasta with cheese and pepper) is served in a crosta di parmigiano (dish-shaped cheese crust).
You can eat outside in a secluded garden, weather permitting.
