After a long 12 hour day returned from Pompeii at 7:30 pm. As it was Sunday my restaurant resources were limited. All had told me to try spagetti carbonara before I left Rome. Asked at the local sandwich shop and low and behold he agreed to make me the dish. He went to his apartment above the sandwich shop returning with this amazing dish!

Here’s the name of his restaurant in the Piazza di Porta Maggiore area.

And last but not least my chef!

And while not a beer drinker did come to enjoy this brew..

As they say, when in Rome do as the Romans do!
