SUPPLÍ
Born out of that Italian creativity, of making a brand new dish out of leftovers, supplí have been a staple of Roman life since the early 18th century. For a long time, these tasty rice balls have been & always are a typical on the go snack for romans of all ages. We normally serve three types of supplí:
Ragú
Mince meat in a traditionally cooked slowly in a Ragu sauce, a favourite for all ages, also known as Bolognese sauce.
Carbonara
A popular roman sauce for pasta. In here we dress the rice with its flavourful pancetta, eggs and cheese.
Vegan/Veggie SUPPLÍ
(V)(VG)
The vegan version for our supplí can vary according to the fresher products we find, and according to the season, but usually are peas and asparagus, or peas and carrots, or spinach with vegan cheese.
SCARPETTA
A Roman homemade focaccia bread great to “collect” the sauce of our traditional and authentic dishes. This recipe of what we call “pizza bianca” goes back two thousands years when the bakers of ancient Roma used to throw a piece of roughly stretched dough into the oven to check if it had reached the right temperature before baking the bread. Once they pulled it out, they would put some salt and oil and eat it, nothing goes wasted in our culture.
Chicken & Peppers
Hard to say when the peppers finish and the chicken starts...A simple and mouth-watering classic dish easy to find on Roman tables since forever.
Meatballs
A quintessential Sunday meal for a very long time. Beef was not an every day product for the roman working class, but a treat on Sundays after church. The origin of this dish is debatable & spread amongst many legends. What we know is that the Tomato first arrived in Italy (Pisa) in October 1548 as a present for Cosimo de’ Medic After that, housewives started to use them in hundreds of way and one way was in a sauce with some meat. Every region in Italy has, probably a different way to make the

Meatball Ragu Pasta

It is our most popular item, served with Pasta or soaked into our homemade Focaccia.
Carbonara Pasta
Another very well known, international dish. The carbonara is well known for its creation out of Rome during World War II. Local Inn keepers around Trastevere knew the British and American soldiers missed eggs and Bacon. These same soldiers had developed a love for Pasta too, So these thoughtful Inn keepers created this irresistible dish.
