Question

Will your wedding be indoors or outdoors?

You will be granted access to Torcrescenza Castle, a historic and robust fortress that also serves as a captivating estate, featuring expansive green spaces and exquisite gardens. Within the castle, you will have the opportunity to explore a rich collection of artworks, frescoes, statues, and fountains, all of significant historical and artistic value. If you wish to stroll through the gardens, we recommend using mosquito repellent for a more comfortable experience.

Question

Top 6 Food Recommendations

Answer

A first course such as Pasta alla carbonara, made with eggs, guanciale bacon and Roman pecorino cheese, is practically the city’s official dish. Alternatively, try some Bucatini all'amatriciana, pasta seasoned with guanciale, tomato sauce and Roman pecorino cheese. One dish that everyone can agree on is Roman gnocchi, made with a semolina-based dough. If you instead prefer focusing on meat dishes, start with Saltimbocca alla romana (slices of veal topped with prosciutto and sage) and move on to Coda alla vaccinara (beef tail stewed and seasoned with various vegetables). Don’t forget Trippa alla romana, with the legendary Sora Lella’s version which is also quite well-known, who added ingredients such as mint and Roman pecorino cheese.
