DESSERT

Pompi Trevi· Roma RM

This was downright bad; the cake was excessively soggy, and the coffee flavor was almost nonexistent. However, this might be specific to this branch; the one we had elsewhere later was better. Still, we've had better ones in Türkiye.

I ordered a classic tiramisu. This was the closest I'd come to the best tiramisu in Türkiye. The coffee wasn't too strong, and the cake was perfectly moistened. Overall, it was nice, but not amazing.

PASTA DISHES

My master chef prepares different types of pasta every day, serving up a bucket of pork pasta followed by a bucket of vegetable pasta, offering a kind of healing experience. You can think of it as a local pasta shop; their real work is playing around with the pasta dough in the back. Both pasta dishes were delicious, and the price was very reasonable. Definitely worth a visit.

DEEP-FRIED DISH

Italy
Otello· Roma RM

Either I didn't understand this dish, or maybe my chef fried it in oil that had been sitting around for a while, or something happened; I couldn't figure out the taste from any angle. I might eat it again somewhere else on someone else's recommendation, but at this point, I couldn't figure out which parts were edible and which weren't. I've tried quite a bit, but to no avail.

BREAKFAST

Italy
Caffè Gilli· Firenze FI

The product is great, but the pricing is absurd. It has a very soft dough on the outside, and the cream filling has a slightly cheesy taste, but it's not overwhelming. It's a product that's typical of our traditional Turkish "açma poğaça" (a type of Turkish pastry), the kind you'd expect to find at any poğaça cart in Ankara's main square. I think they've elevated it a bit too much. Overall, it's edible, but it should be cheaper.

Absolutely delicious, the basic idea is boiled tripe cooked in a tomato-based broth. Before serving, the chef adds a little garlic on top. Before adding the bread on top, he just dips it in the broth and takes it out. Every detail is excellent, I would eat it again.
