Ristorante San Claudio In Corridonia

22/03/2024: We couldn't have started our first evening in Recanati any better than this! The place is very characteristic given that it is located inside a renovated period building where brick and vaults dominate. You literally dine by candlelight and at times an extra helping of light would be desirable to read the menu and the very interesting wine list which makes the Marche offer, with a fantastic quality-price ratio, its strong point. So let's start with the first courses: I order a little guitar which on the menu was supposed to be made with prawns and poppies, but which in reality comes with various seafood of a touching freshness and an exceptional taste. Superlative dish. My partner instead had very delicate flakes with cheese and pears and lemon sauce. For my guitars I drew hands down from the basket of homemade bread for the shoe that was a must! Let's move on to the second course: I had an exquisite lamb steak, while my partner had an excellent fillet with green pepper. This restaurant makes meat an object of worship! I say this in all sincerity given that after thousands of reviews this is the second place (the first is the Pitbeef in Milan) that offers the highly prized Finnish sashi on the menu! Stuff for enthusiasts. Fantastic and unexpected. I ended with a tasting of cheeses from the Marche region which saw its strong point in pecorino, including the slow food presidium from the Sibillini mountains. Among the surprises, the final offer must certainly be mentioned: a brandy? NO!, a coffee? NO! It was a bar of dark chocolate served on a wooden cutting board equipped with a blade to be able to freely slice it at will... never seen anything like it! The evening was accompanied by an excellent 2019 Moroder Rosso Conero Notte. Truly an applause experience.

22/03/2024: A restaurant which, due to the quality of its offerings and attention to detail, could take on any scenario... finding it there among the alleys of a village like Recanati is completely unexpected.
