Much of our home cooking is Italian, so we felt right at home in Rome...plus there were three supermercados, the huge New Esquiline Market, numerous alimentaries and produce shops, and other things within a few blocks of our appartamento. Besides, when in Rome...
|
At the produce market just outside our building's door |
|
Bulk wine store around the block; BYOB; sadly, I didn't get here much |
|
Home cookin'--Vicki's veal picatta and pasta alfredo |
|
Chef's board at a resto whose name I've forgotten, near Piazza Reppublica |
|
Roman pastries are attractive, but we mostly stuck with the gelato; a really good gelato shop, San Lorenzo, was just a block away |
|
In an alley just beyond our bedroom window was Saltimbocca, a restaurant we liked |
|
In part because of its meter deal...a meter's worth of Roman tapas, plus an aperativo, for 10€ |
|
Her pizza |
|
My saltimbocca |
|
Artichokes a specialty in Trastavere and the Jewish Ghetto |
|
At Dar Poeta |
|
With the beyond decadent calzone filled with ricotta and nutella |
|
Italian broccoli |
|
In the huge Nuova Esquilino Mercado, a few blocks away; the entire central aisle (nave?) was seafood |
|
Fried artichoke at Tonnarello's in Trastavere |
|
My salmon |
|
Her carbonara |
|
Ultima cena in Rome, a selection of Italian sausages and pasta |

The food looks so yummy! One of my food emails just this week talked about Roman fried artichokes.
