La Cantina di Biffi

Dedicated to the food and wine of Abruzzo, this stone-walled cantina is a handsome place to eat, with its open kitchen and blackboard of seasonal specialities. An antipasto of cheese and cured meats with a wine accompaniment sets you up nicely for the main deal. Think asparagus on poached egg with grana cheese or thick lardons of guanciale (cured pig's cheek).
