"Trattorie showcase straightforward, regional fare made from locally-sourced, in-season ingredients, and are often owned by families. Describing the dining experience at Al Moro, De Laurentiis says, "It's kind of like going to somebody's home and having them cook for you." While dishes and preparations can (and do) vary from one trattoria to the next, pasta all'amatriciana is a staple of trattorie in Rome."
"As she shares in episode two of her series "Everyday Giada," "If you're in Rome and you want to try pasta all'amatriciana, my favorite place to have it is a restaurant called Al Moro [...] they have the best pasta all'amatriciana, I think, in all of Rome." The chef shares that her family has been coming to this restaurant for "a very long time.""
Trattoria Al Moro sits steps from the Trevi Fountain and has operated for over 100 years in a quaint, intimate space. The restaurant functions like a family-run trattoria serving straightforward regional fare made from locally sourced, in-season ingredients. Pasta all'amatriciana is a staple there, prepared in the cucina povera tradition with tomatoes, Pecorino Romano, and guanciale. Guanciale is a toothy, salty cut of pork jowl similar to pancetta that is aged for deep meaty flavor. The restaurant has attracted celebrities such as Federico Fellini and Valentino and maintains a strong social media following with enthusiastic customer praise.
