I chose the Amatriciana, served with a side of homemade potato chips. The Amatriciana was a classic Roman pasta dish made with guanciale (cured pork cheek), tomatoes, pecorino cheese, and a hint of chilli, creating a rich, savoury, and slightly spicy sauce.
For dessert, I had the chocolate and almond cake. It was a rich dark chocolate cake made with ground almonds, giving it a moist texture and a subtle nutty flavour.
Overall, the experience was amazing. The only downside was that the drink service was a bit slower than expected, but I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Italian food and a great atmosphere.
