Maccheroni

Hip crowd wooed by rustic charm
Popular plate: The rigatoni with bacon, sheep's-milk cheese, and black pepper will have you wanting to lick your plate clean once the last morsel has been polished off.

Noteworthy for: Located in the heart of the historical centre this is a good eatery to know about.
For the locals, this is a people watcher’s paradise. Rome’s young media crowd drop in during the night and the regulars come here to see who is out and about.

For the rest of us, the food is the great attraction; homemade Roman dishes and regional specialties including pasta with a black truffle sauce. The restaurant exudes rustic charm with a wood panelled roomy interior that is lined with shelves full of bottles of wine.
