With an uncanny sense of foresight, Rome was first called the Eternal City 2,000 years ago. Even by today’s standards, it’s still grand in a way that few other places can compare to. The buildings are dilapidated and the roads disheveled, but chaos has never looked so exquisite. The cobblestone streets may be nonsensical, but a wrong turn always leads to an unexpected delight: an intimate piazza, a baroque fountain, or a homey trattoria serving house-made cacio e pepe.
Armando al Pantheon beckons both locals and global gastronomes, each immersed in contemplation over the forthcoming feast. Amidst focused conversations, diners are clearly intent on relishing every morsel. Begin with a bruschetta adorned with ripe tomatoes and creamy burrata, followed by fettuccine with porcini mushrooms or the beloved Roman classic, cacio e pepe. For mains, indulge in the succulent chargrilled lamb chops, if available, a delightful symphony of meaty perfection.
