Product Information
Born and raised in Rome, Sara Manuelli reveals its gastronomic secrets: the tiny restaurants tucked away in side streets and frequented religiously by locals; the specialist shops selling gourmet ingredients and artisan produce. This is the ultimate guide to Rome, lusciously illustrated with photographs of Sara's favourite Roman people and places. Each chapter introduces an area of Rome, its restaurants, food, markets and people. Once a Jewish ghetto, the Ghetto e Isola Tiberina, for example, is the home of specialist restaurants and ingredients that recall the ancient Roman-Jewish culinary influences. Here you'll find irresistible dishes such as fried courgette flowers stuffed with anchovies and mozzarella served in tiny trattorias such as Sora Margherita - unsignposted, but always full. Six local day trips from Rome are also featured, taking in areas such as Frascatl, a hilltop town to the south-eat of Rome, where the local white wine is produced. Groups of Romans will drive here just for the evening, dining at one of the many restaurants and enjoying the view and the local white wine.Product Identifiers
