Can’t come to Rome without having pajata, small intestines of milk-fed lamb and their contents cooked (yes, the “contents”) cooked in tomato and served over rigatoni (at Renato e Luisa this time). Dining out in Rome is always an adventure and a “challenge.” We’ll post about our hit-and-miss meal when we get back (partly thrilling, partly disappointing). We did drink a stunning bottle of wine on our last night in Italy… Poggio di Sotto 2000 Brunello!

pajata alla romana! love it!
