La famiglia
Three generations,
one rolling pin.
Rosa opened with four tables in 1987. Her grandchildren still roll the pasta every morning, still light the oven by hand, and still write the menu on the board before the first guest sits down.

La pausa
Plates come back clean. The chef tastes the sauce for tonight and sits down for ten minutes.

The pizzaioli take over. Ninety seconds in the fire, then straight to the table.

Candles low, chairs up, one last espresso for whoever is still at the long table.
