8 ½ - course menu
This season’s tasting menu is a tribute to Rome’s Testaccio district—where ingenuity turned scraps into legends. Born from the historic slaughterhouses, this cuisine transformed what the elite discarded into some of Rome’s most iconic dishes. Zero waste. Maximum flavor. Real soul.Our Chef reimagines this tradition through a winter lens in 8½ bites, a nod to Federico Fellini—visionary filmmaker and lifelong pasta devotee. It’s thoughtful, expressive, and unmistakably Roman.
