A very simple but elegant appetizer. There are several kinds of artichokes in the Roman countryside, and they can be prepared in many different ways. Our chef preferred to cook them raw with lemon and ricotta to better accentuate the freshness.

Bucatini Cacio e Pepe and crunchy Animelle
A classic dish representative of Regione Lazio, the bucatini cacio and pepe is a wonderful pasta due to the noodle’s shape, which cups the sauce and cheese. Animelle are the most tender and delicate part of the bovine, and as such very popular in Roman cuisine.

Baby lamb shoulder stuffed with onions, black truffle, sweet garlic in oil and Frascati sauce
The delectable baby lamb meat is even tastier and flavorful because it is cooked with the rare and precious black truffle and Frascati sauce, with a hint of the Etruscan wine Frascati.
