Eating in Rome
The Eternal City offer visitors many restaurants with handsome buffet-style spreads. But there is one thing you won’t have to worry about, so is to find a nice place to eat. From family run trattories, osteries and pizzerias, to fancier, hip restaurants. Here, there is no need to search for restaurants.
For many people the savoury specialties that Rome offers is not sophisticated or elaborated but generous, rich in flavours and character and full of many mouth-watering recipes.
Papardelle ai funghi porcini
Its typical food reflects old traditions in most of its offerings. It is based on fresh vegetables specially the artichoke deep fried, simmered in olive oil with garlic and mint, not expensive cuts of meats, called “quinto quarto” meaning mainly innards, cooked with herbs and hot chilli pepper. The “pecorino cheese” is a very important ingredient in many recipes.
Maybe a typical Roman menu could be to start with a canape so full of garlic - the essential bruschetta “ammazzavampiri” - and maybe also a wonderful mozzarella. If you want to try rigatoni pasta with the famous “pajata” sauce, we recommend that first you eat it and then ask what ingredients contains. It will be possible you so shocked that you no longer want to try the dish otherwise and lose the chance to try out new types of food. Then you could choose between: coda alla vaccinara, (beef tail stew), saltimbocca alla romana, costolette d’abbacchio (lamb ribs). The artichokes “alla giuda” is a typical way of cooking those.
About Roman desserts the ricotta cake is must to worth a try, it is made with fresh ricotta cheese mixed with sugar, lemon, vanilla, candied fruits, pine nuts and raisins. The most of them are mainly connected with festivities such as Carnival, Eastern or Christmas.
Among the best gourmet stores in Rome are La Tradizione on via Cipro 8 and Franchi on via cola di Rienzo 203. Also many good places are to be found in the Centro Storico, along Via Cavour and around Stazione Termini. And a cheaply choice could be, the Borgo district around the Vatican.
