- Check out our brand new cookbook, The Italian Family Kitchen, available for pre-order now! 📚 geni.us/italianfamilykitchen
Every time Eva and I travel to Rome, she shows me around and picks what we eat. Makes sense, right? After all, Eva used to live in the Eternal City and has never led me astray thus far.
However, this time we're switching things up! I've been doing my research and I have some bucket list Roman foods that I want to try. But I'm not if she'll be super jazzed about all of my choices...

Have you ever been to Rome? If you were to go, what's on your food bucket list?
Cacio e pepe definitely. Also tiramisu, maritozzi, anything with pistachio.
The little fried carciofini with lemon; grattachecha at some place at night; basically any kind of fish preparation; also everything else
I won't lie I was kinda hoping to see you take Eva to "Cencio la Parolaccia" just to see her reaction... lol
Definitely _need_ that crazy gelato! Grazie, A & H!
Ho abitato a Roma 28 anni fa. Ancora mi mancano le rosette e le puntarelle perché sono impossibili da trovare fuori di Roma
Pure gold. Comedy, new food ideas, history...we love Pasta Grammar.
8:49 The man dealing with stringy cheese is the best promo for supplì 😄
My English partner didn't understand Eva's reaction to the last meal featured in this video. I told him 'It's like going to a restaurant and paying 20 quid for beans on toast'. His reply: 'Well, you pay for the experience I guess'. Me: 'An experience you can have for half of the price at home'.
In italy eating pasta in a restaurant isnt cheap. Pizza, YES. 5 to 10 euros you get a pizza and a coke, or a beer..
but, for pasta in Italy you pay 15 euro.. now, most italians know how to make Pasta at home. and it will cost 15 euro to feed 6 people for dinner.
so let's say they paid 30 Euros for pastas... Im pretty sure both of them could make the same dish at home.
so, in conclusion your partner is right, you go out for dinner for the event. you pay for the experience. eating at home for a 3rd of the price is a different experience.
In Japan my wife is the same way about Japanese curry restaurants, we could make a gigantic pot of curry that would feed 15+ people for how much you would pay to feed 3 people. And usually the curry at home is equal or slightly better.
In England you can pretty much only eat pasta at most Italian restaurants, it used to drive my mum mad as she remembers when it wasn't like that, there are many fine Italian dishes sans pasta, just you wouldn't know that going to any chain type restaurants. So go to family owned establishments I suppose is the answer. What the answer is to most English people consistently eating the same bloody thing and not being more adventurous thus making choice better for everyone is beyond me, can't undo many years of food habits
Date night in Rome, doesnt get much better than this especially with Eva and Harper as our hosts!
Dai Eva il maritozzo con la panna è patrimonio dell'umanità! 😄
No, la panna è panna anche in Italia, nessuna emulsione
Not Rome, but we just arrived home from five weeks in Tuscany and the Veneto. We have spent a total of nine weeks there in the past nine months. How to describe it? An assault on the senses. An extremely nice one. We have been travelling there over the past 17 years and every day spent there is an adventure.
I love your videos. Thank you for each and every one of them. When I am not in Italy, YOU are my Italy online. Love to you both.
4:10 Actually, the “panna” you’re referring to is the exception: the emulsion with milk and oil is what we call “panna da cucina”, we use it for sauces and such and it’s made that way just sometimes. Most of the times it’s actual cream! And the one that gets whipped and used in pastries is always heavy whipping cream, just like in America. I don’t know why Eva told you that it wasn’t heavy cream because I’m pretty sure she knows! We probably just have a lower fat percentage than the American one
Yeah I was confused by the maritozzo not being filled with real cream I wouldn't imagine they'd use mock cream (a margarine concoction) as they often do in pastries and cakes in Australia - hate that stuff.
@@petraliverani1247 Plus, its practically impossible to whip cooking "panna". Maybe if it's somehow stabilized with gelatin or something. Making it doubly fake. I always thought it was just lightly sweetened real cream too.
Yeah, they've said this in previous videos and I always come straight to the comments for reassurance that it's not the case (so thank you for that). 😃👍
Holy cow. Congratulations on the cookbook. I will order 5 copies now for friends and family Christmas gifts. It is the perfect present that will keep on giving each time they try and enjoy your delicious recipes. Bravo Harper & Eva!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yeah paying 24 euros for a burro and Parmigiano dish is kinda silly, Eva is right. You do have to admit though that having the waiter do the mantecatura right in front of you and then serving it directly and right away has a certain charm
I found it a bit strange that one guest gets a nice served plate while the other practically gets the "pan" xD
I suggest to buy 24 euros of your favorite parmesano reggiano and make it at home Eva's way! And save the rest of the cheese for other pasta grammar dishes...
@@7hkey Hehee... Actually if you get the nice plate you have drawn the short straw, believe me
@@reaprendiendosiempre I'm Italian, I do that basically everyday. One thing that can never be missing in my fridge is my slice of 30 mesi (best Parmigiano seasoning imo, both for consuption and general use)
The Italian waiter is the equivalent to the Japanese Hibachi
A Roma, la pasta burro e parmigiano è chiamata la pasta del cornuto, perché veniva preparata dalle mogli in fretta e furia ai mariti, quando non avevano tempo di cucinare (e quindi, avevano impiegato il loro tempo con chissà chi). Bello il libro, finalmente! Ma uscirà anche in italiano?
😅
Ermmm
Eva's expressions were simply priceless lol
Harper, although I appreciate your effort of bringing Eva to the place where the Alfredo dish started, this restaurant was sold to people outside of the De Lelio family in 1943. The good news is that he opened a new ristorante in 1950 that is still open on Piazza Augusto Imperatore that is still open... gold forks and with all the history of celebrities and world leaders having eaten there. Il Vero Alfredo.
As usual, we loved the video! Ciao!
Maritozzi!!!! Love them! They are easier to eat by splitting them in half lengthwise then using pieces of the brioche to scoop up the panna like Eva did.
I immediately thought of Roman Holiday as soon as Harper said it was a non-food tradition.
I was half expecting Harper to be the Chef at Alfredo's😂😅😅
This reminds me of visiting my little haunts in Paris.
Your sense of humor makes this adorable. Greetings from Nashville, TN!
I absolutely loved this video. Thank you, Harper and Eva. I want to get on a plane right now. Gosh I miss Italy so much❤
I love Eva’s reaction! I thought of my mother eating a plate of Fettuccini Alfredo at a fancy Italian restaurant that her friends made her go to just to eat it! And when it was served she said “ you pay $20 for this! This is what my mother makes the day before payday when there’s no more food in the house!” 😂 I had a good laugh! I always knew payday and great meals were coming soon when this food was served! 😂
Fun! Now, we need the list of places and foods to eat that Eva happily said at the end! Cookbook pre-ordered ❤
Yes please! Or another video with you two going there 😊
Thank you for taking all of us on your Rome eating adventure. I probably will never visit Italy. However, I enjoy watching all of your videos. When my husband first introduced me to your channel, I started watching, then binge watched going backwards to the very first video you uploaded. I've seen everyone.
💖
I have been to Rome once before back in 2013. I was backpacking across Europe at the time. When I was in Rome I made the spots I had to hit based off of what Anthony Bourdain recommended.
I've been fixing spaghetti with butter, parm, and salt since I was a child. My own children think it odd. I think it's delicious!
omg that opening shot is breathtaking
mamma mia, so many good memories of my stay in Rome eons ago. thanks for the memories.
My favorite morning bar was right by Largo del Torre Argentina. Nothing fancy, delicious slightly lemony cornetti. Now there’s a huge new museum there that looks awesome but when I first saw it you just looked down on the cats.
Thank you for your amazing tour of Rome🌹
Thank you for taking me back to my most favorite city in the world. You made my Sunday!!!! Grazie
Just pre ordered the book ten minutes ago . Long way till Sept 17th . It's a Fathers day gift to myself . And a new guitar because the book wasn't enough . And I am a great Father so I deserve it lol
I spent many a summers in Italy in my youth in the 70’s and 80’s and as a fellow hater of whipped cream, I sympathized with Eva. Also, the entire time as the day was moving along I kept on saying to myself…come on Harper, choose Alfredo! I am well aware that it’s a tourist trap, but still…it’s a rite of passage and it’s still pretty damn good. When I have my family from Italy visit me in NY, I know that I will have to do some touristy things with them and I grit my teeth and deal with it, just like Eva did. Great video as always!
I just made my first batch of the coffee liqueur from your limoncello video - it is so good! The fresh coffee flavour is outstanding! Thank you!
Nice change-up of format, lots of fun
Il maritozzo con la panna è un classico! For the record, la panna da montare è ottenuta per affioramento spontaneo in seguito a decantazione lenta oppure tramite centrifugazione; contiene tra il 30% e il 35% di grassi ed è equivalente alla heavy whipping cream che contiene il 36% di grassi.
Tutto il resto non centra "gnente" con la cucina romana. I piatti classici romani sono la pasta all'amatriciana, la coratella, i carciofi alla giudia, la pajata, la coda alla vaccinara, la trippa ed altri che al momento mi sfuggono.
Roma is a magical place.
I am a home chef here in Texas. I’ve been watching you guys for a while now, love the quality content. Y’all are engaging and charming while teaching great , simple Italian cuisine. I just pre-ordered the book. Strong work ,keep it coming!
Great video! I will have to try Suppli'. I'm an Arancini lover and looking forward to tasting the difference!
10:26.. Eva's reaction when she realized she wouldn't be able to choose her gelato flavor.
That last eatery… beautifully set table with nice silverware & linens, tables generously spaced, table side service. 👍 Bump yourself up a star!
Finally someone who holds the wine glass properly - by the stem
Siete in Italia? Se passate dalle mie parti avvisate, sono sempre disponibile per portarvi un po' in giro. ;)
Grázie! 😘 Arribo súbito!
Am I the only one who sits at CZcams at 8:59am EST to wait for the next video to drop? I still miss the Wednesday videos too..
Every Sunday I wake up and immediately look for the PG video, lolol
Anch io❤ Me tooooo🎉
For me it's 3 pm in Poland so it's a perfect time to have lunch while watching PG
Never. These are boring people. No kids no family just mangia mangia. Boring. The mop hair lady. Shes got to go 😂😂
🤚 Me!!!
We arrived in Rome/Trastevere on Monday and we're staying very close to SuppliRoma and Otaleg, so we've been able to try both. Super good suggestions. We loved the suppli and our traditionally flavored gelatos from Otaleg.
In Sicily I loved to start the morning with brioche with icecream. 😅
“De gustibus non est disputandum.” So true
Lucky ducks😊 been eating pasta with butter and cheese since I was very young and we fed it to my children and grandson. Although, when young we made it with pastina, and even now. The Best and soo easy😊 Great video, I wish I was there.🥰
My maternal grandparents were both born in the village of Calascio, Abruzzo and I've been to Rome several times, once with my 4 siblings as part of our pilgrimage to Calascio to research our family tree. While in Rome we ate at a Sardinian restaurant that I would definitely go to again. I usually don't make detailed plans of where to go and what to do when I travel. I like surprises!
Great idea for a video. Thanks for taking us along. I can't wait to buy a few copies of your cookbook for myself and two family members.
One of my best experiences in France was eating at a Japanese restaurant. It was pretty traditional Japanese, but you could see it was somewhat catered to the French palate. Obviously the french food we ate was amazing, but French food is not the only good food in France, so I thought it would be good to try something international while we were there. I REALLY wanted to try a Chinese place whose menu looked very different from American style Chinese food, but it was closed the day we had free to try it.
To the American guy (can't remember your name at this moment): it's obvious you've only eaten Palermo style arancine because in Catania the arancini's ragù is mixed together with the rice. Can't understand why anyone would prefer suppli over arancini.
I loved this, you guys are great. I have been following you since Lockdown and have seen all of your videos. Eva is now my point of reference for Italian cooking.
Yep it’s artichoke time
My husband and I will be visiting Rome next month! I hope you can get into more details in a future video so we know which places are a must try. Thank you for the fun video! ❤
I would imagine that going to Alfredo's would be the equivalent of Eva being excited about going to get cold cereal! LOL Thank you for the fun tour.
But I believe that apart from foreign tourists who enter that restaurant out of curiosity and because it is the place where the famous Fettuccine Alfredo are born, no Italian, no Roman goes to pay 24 € (!) to eat some pasta with butter and parmigiano reggiano, a dish he can make anytime at home in 10 minutes. Usually an Italian who goes to a restaurant does not go to eat some pasta with butter and parmesan cheese. Let's say it is not the "classic dish" that one orders in a restaurant. Of course there is no question that it is a delicious dish, like most simple Italian dishes that with only two ingredients you get a super delicious dish .
Recently came across you guys. The content is really amazing and i really love the recepies.
One of the best italy related channels on the tube ❤
Love what you and your wife all about love you guys really appreciate what do like watching you guys have fun in life don't give up keep doing your best showing up for us love see more people like you good people
I’ve pre-ordered the cookbook!! So exciting!
Love, love both of you and your banter! Love most foods, love trying new ones. I have been to Rome in early 70's. Food we had was wonderful but my tastes weren't very developed. Would love to go again. Thanks for being so kind to one another.
Thank you for the delightful video! You both make the journey entertaining and beautiful. Everything looked delicious.
I love you guys! I just pre-ordered the book. Looking forward to its release and much success in its selling.
I hope you did a video on all the things Eva mentioned in the last 30 seconds!
Grazie per il vostro lavoro!
Your camera work is gorgeous, Harper (as is the subject matter ... Roma and glorious Eva)!
I like your storytelling bits in this Mr.Filmmaker...and the day of eating!
You two are the most adorable couple on the planet. Thank you for you both. ❤️🥰😘😍❤️🥰😘😍
It's been almost 2 yrs since I last watched your channel. So many vids to binge watch. Bon appetito
I love you two! I’ve only been to Italy twice, and this video demonstrated so many of the things I love about it-especially Rome. The food, the colours, the food, the architecture, the food, the language… oh and did I mention the food?!?!? I’ll definitely be looking to get your cookbook. Thanks for another great video!
Love your videos and look forward to your cook book.
Thank you. I love your channel, always informative and enjoyable. God bless you both. (Missed you last week)
Cookbook preordered! Congrats on getting it published.

Eva had good reasons for not taking him to those places, other than the Suppli lunch. She knows what is good, and wanted her Harper to have the best food. I was laughing trying to keep up with her rolling off the actual 2nd dinner list in Italian. I am surprised his hand didn't get bitten off by the statue thing. Loved the video, those Suppli looked amazing!
Your content always makes me so happy
I cannot wait to get your cookbook❤
After over a year of living here in Italy, I've noticed that Italians like doing the big brunch thing once in a while. Places like Brunch Republic in Padova and Treviso are packed on sundays.
I'm not terribly surprised people going to Italy from the USA love the ice-cream there. For me, a guy from Poland, it's not that much of an attraction, since most popular ice-cream parlours in Poland make them the same way as in Italy and in Polish language they're just called "lody włoskie" meaning "Italian ice-cream". I have a few favourite places in my city that make amazing ones. And I also got pretty delicious ones in Croatia besides.
I know what I’m asking for this Christmas 😊
Thank you for this video. It made me fondly remember (and miss) the one euro meal deal consisting of a cappuccino or coffee and a croissant that we used to have every morning at the café next to the hostel while in Rome as tourists a decade ago. Italian coffee and pastry tasted almost unbelievably good, especially for that price.
Pre-ordered the book. You guys are the best..👌
Great video Kids! I enjoyed 1:45 the music and the sights very much! It would be so wonderful to have a knowledgeable personal guide to show you just the best places.
Assuming that's your place in the beginning, really lovely balcony
This was a fun video to watch!
So, like old home week, Otelag…..always a line when it’s warm out, Roscioli….never had their Maritozzo, but have eaten there many times….Next on the list, gonna run to Supplizio for a snack!! Alfredo’s…..the real thing!! And no cream!!! Bravo!!! It’s about the company and the experience you have….. i make it for my grandson all the time….Next time head down to Nonna Betta’s…their carciofo Alla Giada is awesome!!
You guys were right up the street from our home! I'm happy to see y'all had a great time. Maritozzi are my favorite. 👌 Great choice
I feel, a bit, like a third wheel on this bicycle. What a lovely way to spend the day. Thank You for sharing it with us. ❤
Fate un video insieme con Max!
Max from Tasting History?
@@Ivehadenuff Harper's Dad, Max. He is always fun when he gets in. the kitchen with Eva😃
Harper you did well!!! having lived in Rome half my life I know all those places. You did well and so good on the food YUM!!! i miss so many of those places. i can at least go back to Italy proper when I watch your channel :) THANKS!!
Harper, watching the two of you eating this is hilarious. I’m in my kitchen having a bagel, a lot less messy but not nearly as tasty I am sure. Enjoy!
Harper you and Eva look super cute and happy! Have a blast in Rome! Love from CA on the beach!
I just ordered y'all cookbook, I wanted to learn how to fix Italian food and try Italian food. Now I learn how to fix Italian food from your cookbook.
Best Gelato in Rome “ Old Bridge Gelateria “ my Aunt lives close to there lifelong family destination.
I like Giolitti near the Pantheon for gelato.
Pre ordered book
Look forward to it
But your videos provide great content
I love whipped cream! Made some yesterday for a pie made with “Philadelphia.”
That video was so fun! It brought back a lot of my Roman vacation memories. My parents brought me to La bocca de La vérita when I was about 9 and I was so scared to loose my hand! lol .
My favorite breakfast or for anytime of day
I’ve been to that Gelato place! In 2019 my kids were performing a series of concerts in Italy, and we went to Otaleg - they had an amazing basil gelato!
Lovely video as always.
The best maritozzo you can get is from Regoli in Esquilino district!
Looks like a great day
This was fun! Have you been to Betto e Mary?
Eva is so incredibly endearing ❤
