Our Inspiration: Tricolore Monti!

The idea of a blog actually came out few months ago while attending a cooking class in Rome with some friends at Tricolore Monti, a little fancy sandwich shop and cooking class venue. We took part to a fresh pasta course: classes usually start at 7 pm and last about 3 hours (price is €80). We had the chance to learn how to prepare flour-only and flour+eggs pasta: amazing!

Here are some pix:

Some courses are available also in English and I strongly recommend this place if you want to learn the secrets of Italian recipes.....and visit Rome from another perspective :-)

Tricolore is also a gourmet-sandwiches shop at lunch time: here you can try perfectly engineered sandwiches with quite unsual  but still mouth-watering ingredients! The bread dough is inspired to Gabriele Bonci, the "Michelangelo of Pizza" as the NY Times defined him few years ago. He is basically one of the best pizzaioli in Italy and his small roman shop "Pizzarium" is becoming world-famous. His recipes will also inspire our next post......

...Stay Tuned!
