We were wandering through the back streets of Rome one cold December night just after Christmas looking for something to eat. In a bleak side street we found a dimly lit restaurant that was still open, went in, sat down, looked at the menu and saw that it was all fettucini. OK, I'll have a fettucini - how about this one, al fredo? Sounds ok. The waiter came and with violent blows of his spoon stirred together what appeared to be scrambled egg and presented it on our plates. Looking round we noticed various black and white photographs of Hollywood film stars. I think I recognized Douglas Fairbanks. Some time later we discovered we'd been to THE restaurant Alfredo alla Scrofa. T. |
