For the full Roman experience, you have to visit a wine bar. The concept of the modern wine bar is quite simple: choose from a wide selection of wines (which the Italians do extremely well), and if it’s available, pair it with some delectable food. I’ve tried some of the tastiest wines and been knocked off my feet by delicious Amarone and punchy Baralo that I sampled along a little cobblestone side street in the Eternal City close to the Vatican. Many times, I’ve bought a bottle and brought it home with me.  You’re not alone in thinking that a wine bar can sound somewhat ostentatious. Yet ..read more

The 6 Best Foods To Try in Rome

Rome really is a foodie’s dream. There’s nothing better than tucking into a cheesy Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe with a view of the Colosseum in the background or licking on some fresh gelato beside the Spanish Steps. One thing I love about Rome is that there’s always a new dish to try every time I visit. Roman cuisine is so vast, with many recipes originating from tough times when the population was much poorer, resulting in cooks having to use whatever they could get their hands on. I remember the first time I went to Rome, and I stuck to the basic dishes like Pasta alla Carbonara. But after dozen ..read more

Meatballs in tomato sauce recipe is my all-time favorite! When I was younger, everyone used to visit their grandparent’s house on Sundays to have lunch. Starting our lunch with an antipasto (prosciutto and melon and fried zucchini flowers, for example) and continued to a dish of pasta and having at least four different side dishes, and the main course. Ending our lunch with an Italian dessert and espresso is satisfying! I used to get confused and slightly smug when my classmates tell me that for lunch they eat meatloaf or peanut butter sandwiches at their grandmothers’ houses. I always used to ..read more

As much as I enjoyed eating traditional Italian foods when I was younger, I lived with the idea that American desserts were superior to Italian desserts. Sure, Italians had Tiramisu and Gelato, but those were nothing compared to raspberry topped cheesecakes, towering chocolate layer cakes, and fudgy brownies. There were very rarely surprises and creativity in Italian desserts as far as I could see. This post was originally published in 2014 and has be revised for accuracy.  The Italian restaurants I went to offered the same list of Italian desserts (Panna Cotta, Tiramisu) and I was slight ..read more

Remember that post where I talked about Italian secondi, (main courses) the unsung heroes of Italian cuisine that are shadowed by the ever-popular pasta and pizza? Well, I’d like to add another dish to that category: risotto! I’ve noticed that many cuisines have their own riff on rice – the Spanish have paella, the Chinese have fried rice and the Mexicans Arroz con Leche. Risotto is rice done the Italian way. ”Arborio” or ”carnaroli” rice is slowly cooked with white wine and broth and finished off with a healthy dose of parmesan cheese.  In addition, it is important to know that Italy&nbs ..read more
