    The cuisine of Rome

    The modern cuisine of Rome is an intersection of the aggressive (Arrabbiata) culture coming from Ancient Rome and the modern, stylish culture of today’s Italy. Dishes like Carbonara, Cacio e Pepe, Amatriciana and Arrabbiata are emblematic of Roman cuisine. Thin-crust pizzas with fresh local produce, sold by the slice, reflect the fast-paced rhythm of the Eternal City.

    Arrabbiata is a hot tomato sauce traditionally served with penne pasta, but in Rome you can find many more dishes that carry the energy of the Roman Empire. Rome’s culinary culture is constantly evolving through the evolution of classic dishes and the emergence of new fusion recipes that excite and provoke the curiosity of gourmets from around the world.
