In the hills above Civitanova Marche, a rustic restaurant called Mangia provided a dining experience as good as half the Michelin-starred restaurants I’ve tried. For a third the price.
Love the sound of this one and as Le Marche is my neighbouring region, its not too far! If you are ever in my region of Abruzzo, may I recommend Taverna 58 in the old town of Pescara
Well that sounds worth the time and map reading to experience! Since I'll be in Italy in October I guess the tourist trade will have settled. The only problem is that my Italian is still in the no-man's-land stage so it will be a challenging time but I'm sure well worth it!
It always amazing to find these out of the way restaurants in Italy that serve amazing food , far more amazing then the posh restaurants we go to for occasions. This was brought home to me recently when I paid nearly €200 for lunch for my Son and I for his graduation from school in a posh hotel here in Ireland. I would pay that money for a really tasty meal but it was not that it was just ok. I told my Son about how nearly 20 years ago I had found this fabulous restaurant called Il Convento on a the top of a very bad hill track in Toscano that was hands done one of the best dining experience of my life.

Thanks for the recommendation!
What a wonderful find! What did you think of the Flix Bus? I’ve never done it.
Really not bad. I often use it to go to Marche from Rome. Clean, convenient, cheap, and has bathrooms.
That’s great to know because I’d like to go to Marche and I don’t drive. Thanks!
