"Staying in San Benedetto Del Tronto we fancied having something a bit less holiday and a bit more traditional Italian, and set off coaxing our little rental Fiat 500 up the steep inclines to Monteprandone. Once there we went into the beautifully arranged and intimate setting of Osteria 1887. We 're foodies at home but weren 't overly sure of likely quantities etc, so we just went for the set menu for two at a ridiculously cheap €30. The meal amounted to five courses plus water, breads, and coffee (for which I had no room left). Particular mention would go to the crisply coated stuffed olives, the finely cut courgette fries, the delightfully light and delicate ravioli, and the beautifully seared lamb. A half litre of an enjoyable lightly sparkling rosé added only €2 to the bill unbelievable! At a total of €32, don 't think it 's too cheap to be good back home I 'd not hesitate to pay more than double that for the same meal and I 'd still be walking away happy. With the polite and quick service on top, we wouldn 't hesitate to recommend this place."
