    This is a white-tablecloth trattoria out on Via Flaminia, where the meal opens with a wooden tray of salami roughly the size of a toddler, delivered with a knife and a glove so you can carve your own. The pastas include a gricia with asparagus and a deconstructed amatriciana, and the suckling pig comes in crackling skin. Antique art on the walls, no tour groups with flags in sight, and nobody will rush you off the premises.

      “The pastas, like gricia with asparagus and the deconstructed amatriciana, are great.”

      The Infatuation
    • Suckling maialino

      “And the suckling maialino, juicy and encased in thick, crispy skin, is the porky equivalent of a soprano solo you'd see at Teatro dell'Opera.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
