Famous and hidden restaurants and food shops in all parts of Rome July 4, 2005
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Part cookbook, part travel guide, and part armchair tour, Cucina Romana reveals the gastronomic secrets of Rome, as recorded by Rome native, travel writer, and gastronomic connoisseur Sara Manuelli. Chapters reveal both famous and hidden restaurants and food shops in all parts of Rome, complete with an address book for food lovers on vacation, sample recipes, and dazzling full-color photographs of such treats as '"torta ai frutti di bosco", a succulent dessert pastry that has to be seen (if not tasted) to be truly appreciated. A pleasure to browse through; though the sumptuous illustrations, descriptions, and recipes of succulent Rome cuisine are sure to make the reader hungry!
