What to order
- Roman — Cacio e pepe, carbonara, amatriciana, gricia. Four pasta dishes from almost nothing, and a brutal test of technique.
- Emilian — Bologna and Modena. Fresh egg pasta, ragù, tortellini in brodo, parmigiano and balsamic.
- Sicilian — Arab and North African influence. Pasta con le sarde, caponata, arancini, granita.
- Neapolitan — Pizza, but also ragù napoletano, seafood, and a completely different register from the north.
How to spot a good one
- A short menu that changes — Italian cooking is seasonal and ingredient-led. A menu of eighty dishes available year-round is being executed from a freezer.
- Pasta made there — Fresh egg pasta for the shapes that call for it, and good dried pasta — bronze-cut, rough-surfaced — for the ones that do not. Fresh is not automatically better; the right one for the dish is.
- Sauce that clings — Pasta finished in the pan with the sauce and a little cooking water, emulsified. Sauce ladled on top of drained pasta is the single most common tell.
