Checchino dal 1887
Involtini di carne alla romana
From Checchino, today in its fifth generation, the cuisine is still faithful to its origins and it couldn’t be any other way. The historic menu is worth announcing: zampi salad, rigatoni con pajata, bucatini alla gricia, coda alla vaccinara, cicoria di campo in padella, seasoned pecorino, ricotta cake. Just like a plate of Buon Ricordo, though, these roulades prepared with slices of beef and handful of celery, carrots, and bacon, with one leaf of penny royal, mean pleasant seasonal variations.

From this restaurant many adventurers, princes, people...
