FLAVORS OF ROME Il Gattopardo: another New York restaurant find on my blog. The end note - Pastiera Napoletana, the incredible orangey-lemony ricotta cake. http://flavorsofrome.blogspot.com/

Following a recipe in Italy has nothing to do with measuring cups and spoons. There aren't any measuring cups and spoons as I discovered when I asked some Roman chefs, friends, and other members of the general population. ...

In life as in eating. timing is everything. So it was that on my last days in Rome with so many restaurants yet to visit, I had no choice but to double up on big meals, both pranzo (lunch) and cena (dinner). One day in particular, I hit the big gustatory jackpot: two spectacular feasts.
FLAVORS OF ROME Roman Pizza - thin crispy crust at Pizzeria Montecarlo off Corso Vittorio on Vicolo Savelli. If I hadn't been in such a hurry to eat it all up, I would have taken a better photo.
FLAVORS OF ROME Flavors of Rome makes another discovery: Ristorante Monserrato in the charming little Piazza Santa Caterina della Rota. For years, nearly under my nose and on my well-beaten path in Rome. Picture here, bucoli (whole wheat pasta of the Veneto) with shrimp, tomatoes & parsley, thoroughly enjoyed in the company of writ...er Susan Van Allen and sommelier Heather Hanson.
FLAVORS OF ROME Pizza e fichi sounds like a strange kind of lunch. But nothing could be sweeter than a last of the Roman figs, called settembrini, stuffed inside Rome's pizza bianca (white pizza - the name doesn't quite do it justice) with a thin slice of prosciutto. Those figs will be gone soon, so, of course, that makes the entire eating experience bittersweet.
FLAVORS OF ROME Food seduction: rigatoni all'amatriciana. I hear half the people on my newsletter list are out today hunting for good pancetta. Recipe on my site: www.flavorsofrome.com
