Stroll through the streets of historic Rome as you make your way to your next stop where you will sample delicious pasta dishes. Just steps away from the amazing Pantheon, this locale has been operating since 1934 and continues to be an important Roman legend and has officially been declared a historical site by the city of Rome! This is where you will try a typical Roman pasta dish called “alla Romana” – meaning the Roman style.  As you enjoy your meal, your guide will share with you the humble origins of this signature dish.  Do not be shy and allow your guide to twist your arm into trying some more adventurous pasta dishes. We promise you will not be disappointed.
