Restaurants in Rome: Primo in the Pigneto district

posted: Tuesday 08 July 2008 by Alison in: Rome Restaurants

acciughe If you’re looking for a restaurant in Rome, we can recommend Primo, in the Pigneto quarter of Rome, an area famous for its nightlife. The food is well done and the products are all of a high quality, excellent choice.

The interior is well looked after with a white and minimalist theme. You can start with an appetiser on the house, for example fried anchovies, stuffed with mint.

The cuisine from chef Marco Gallotta starts with traditional dishes, and is lighter in its use of fats and cooking. It’s a simple style that focuses on keeping the intensity of the original taste of a dish’s ingredients.

For the antipasto you could try the guinea fowl salad with vegetables and a light mayonnaise, or the octopus salad, which is fresh and tasty, with potatoes and vegetables.

The first courses will satisfy any whim with spaghetti and anchovies, or pasta with sea bass sauce and seasonal vegetables.

For a second course you could try mullett with tomato slices, and the chicken with potato dumplings and sweet green chillis is delicious.

The wine list is extensive but not too expensive. You can eat here for about 35 euro a head, and it’s definitely somewhere to try in Rome that will get you out of the traps with their tourist menus.
