roman pastas

Holy mama mia! Carbonara purists rejoice!!! Roman pastas need never be bastardized by butter, by cream, by americans, by the French, by vegetables...it is supposed to be heavy and decadent and rich and luxurious and silky and glossy for the perfect purpose of a well portioned medley of starch, pork fat, cheese and egg yolks coating the plate, clinging to your fork and copulating into the four corners of your mouth. #moltobuono #roma #italy#spaghetti #carbonara

Hosteria Grappolo D'Oro


this sardine burrata mille-feuille was fantastic.  light crispy breadstick crackers between an umami bomb of sardine mellowed out by the creaminess of the cheese.


we love bresola


we wasted the first meal at a bourdain recommended joint, chock full of tourists and english speaking waiters living an italian stereotype while diners convinced themselves this is the best pasta they've ever had....don't go to roma sparita.


we googled a place nearby the vatican...and the truffle pasta....divine.
