The concept

The salsamenteria, back in the pan.

The deli counter of good things, with the fire on. Pick, watch it toss, eat. No tablecloth (and no waiting).

The story

The corner counter, with the fire on.

Roman salsamenterie were the deli counter round the corner: cured meats, cheese, a bit of gossip. We kept the counter and lit the fire.

Bronze-cut fresh pasta, seven Roman recipes, one pan per portion. Watch it toss, take it away in a bowl (or stay, nobody's kicking you out).

How it works
