A distinctly Tuscan Dish, Pici with Tuscan Ragu sauce is a delicious pasta dish with ground meat. This dish gets its name from the fact that the pasta dough is kneaded by hand and then stretched into long thick spaghetti. As classic dish that can be found in Montepulciano, it is a must! Pair with some red wine and add some Pecorino cheese to top it off!
A classic Roman dish, tonnarelli alla carbonara is a traditional favorite. This simple, yet tasty dish uses tonnarelli pasta, bacon, egg yolks, Pecorino cheese, and some ground peppercorns. If you are looking to try a classic tonarelli alla carbonara in Rome, head over to Tonarello located in Trastevere.
Arguably one of the most recognizable dishes, pizza in Italy is made to perfection! Napoli is known for their Pizza, yet there are a variety of good Pizza restaurants throughout Italy. If you are in the mood for a thick crust, try Sicilian Pizza! Want a crunchy or flat crust, try the Pizza Tonda Romana! Dar Poeta in Trastevere is one of my favorites and highly rated online! If you are looking for a quick take-away pizza, try Alice Pizza!
