ABOUT THEEXPERIENCE

The grand, traditional Roman fare is one of the things to do in Rome, that you must try once in a lifetime! The unique dishes that root back to the beginnings of the Roman empire will blow you away. If you're wondering what Romans eat, don't hesitate to book a dinner at my home restaurant.

Roman food such as Rigatoni alla carbonara and Bruschette al pomodoro, are famous specialties that you must try on your trip to Rome. The best way to try these authentic Italian dishes is with locals, following traditional home made recipes. Join me and get a taste of the best food in Rome!

great food and amazing hosts! I had some Roman and Neapolitan dishes, easy recipes but really well done. Spaghetti alla Puttanesca was excellent. Simona and her family are really friendly and we had a nice conversation all together during the meal, you immediately feel like eating at home with your friends. Convenient location, not far from the metro station so easy to reach by public transport. I hope I will try the others Simona recipes soon ;)

I had the pleasure of eating at Simonas house and the food was not only super delish but the company was so fun. I got to dine with locals and make new friends while eating some typical Neapolitan dished prepared by Simone. Her family were wonderful...from her husband to her son:) A fun evening of food and friendship.

We had a great evening at Simona's home restaurant. The food was delicious, and Simona was full of interesteing historical facts on the origins of the dishes. The spaghetti alla putanesca was a particular success, as was her Caprese chocolate cake! The atmosphere was relaxed and Simona and her husband give their guests a really genuine non-touristy experience, showing them not only how locals eat, but how they live as well. Their son was adorable and added to the fun of the evening. Highly recommended!

An Amazing Evening With Fabulous Food and New Found Friends!!! Simona and her husband Alfredo were so warm and friendly, making us feel very welcomed, from greeting us on the street to the delicious apperitivo awaiting us upon our arrival. We thoroughly enjoyed Simona's menu Terra Mia, a reflection of her Napolitana roots. Every morsel of the food was exquisite; lovingly prepared and beautifully presented. Simona could easily open up her own restaurant in Rome with her level of expertise. Not only would I highly recommend a meal at Simona's but we are definitely planning a return visit. Grazie mille Simona! Julie and Nicola - Toronto Canada

Simona and her husband were such friendly & warm hosts! I had a great experience dining at her house. Her home is beautifully furnished & you are in for a treat if you go for her Rome menu! I had to admit my fav dish of hers was the potato pie with smoked cheese and mortadadella! It was both sweet & savoury - a must-try at her place! Her roman dishes are made with much tender-loving care, they are exquisite to your palate. Be sure to leave enough room for desserts because you don't wanna miss out on it! But the best part of it all is the great company we had chatting with her & her husband :)
