Eating in Rome


The salmon is from a market on Principe Amadeo and Mamiani, served with radiccio and purslane. That mixture was from a supermarket called Elite and was pretty cheap.

The meats, eggs and fish I've bought have been very fresh and high quality. The eggs are large with orange yolks and very thick shells.


The greens in the beef and eggs pics say broccoletti on the package, apparently part of the brassica family, which I religiously eat daily.



The cheese is ricotta salata, quite the taste sensation, also from the market at Principe Amadeo. I also bought a cabbage and an onion there, and to my taste the cabbage was particularly sweet and the onion very strong.


When I went out to eat, so far I had a beef dish in red wine with mushrooms served over arugula, no pic.
