Let’s get to know each other better
It was 1977 when Anna D’Andrea, after a twenty-year experience as a chef in Rome, returned to Civitella Casanova to pursue her dream: converting a tobacconist’s shop into a trattoria. Following their mother’s teachings over time, Marcello Spadone and his wife Bruna, with the help of their sons, Alessio and Mattia, and a close-knit team of collaborators, have transformed “La Bandiera” into an elite destination for Abruzzo gastronomy.
