Our culinary journey through Testaccio with a local chef was insightful. Learning about traditional ingredients and techniques directly from someone so knowledgeable was a treat. The antipasto with wine at the beginning set a high standard that was maintained throughout.

Being German and accustomed to a specific type of cuisine, I was curious about how Rome would compare. Testaccio’s culinary scene was a delightful surprise, especially the authentic Roman pasta at a premier trattoria. It was comfortingly familiar yet intriguingly different.
