RomaPolacchi

Williams Sonoma has a great resource for cooking Roman style at home. The informative and exciting website has recipes, wine, restaurant recommendations, and great photos. It definitely makes me want to work for Williams Sonoma and travel to Rome just to cook and EAT! Bringing Home Rome  is my newest obsession-as is this soup, pasta e ceci, which takes me straight back to lunch at my old school in Rome.
