Join Us for Lunch in Rome, Next Course – Dessert

Join Michele and I in Rome for Lunch. The next and last course is Dessert

Some mornings we would stop for cappuccino and a warm cornetto, like this one at Cafe Ruschena.  It’s stuffed with ricotta and chocolate chips.

Fragolini del bosco, small wild strawberries, were just coming into season.  They have a wonderful floral aroma and go great with a scoop of gelato.

At La Tavernaccia, the dessert of the day was a cake filled with ricotta and pears.This nut and honey tart is a specialty at La Colline Emiliane.

Pine nut cake at Due Ladroni.

Caramelized pear upside down tart at Colline Emiliane.

Michele’s favorite place for gelato is Ciampini in Piazza in Lucina. This one is strawberry and fior di latte.

This was the Neapolitan Pastiera di Grano at I Due Ladroni.  

At ll San Lorenzo I had Sfogliatella and two other deserts.

At Armando al Pantheon, biscotti and a cup of espresso is a perfect way to end the meal.
