Recently found out @david_tanis and I shared a similar tender moment with fresh ricotta at a family run sheep dairy in Sicily, so I felt it was only right to follow his recipe for this perfect summer pasta, starring a luscious ricotta sauce and some superb spring veg. A pretty fine addition to the Father's Day feast. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/06/17/dining/summer-ricotta-zucchini-pasta-recipe.html?referrer=

Stop one on our self guided street food tour of Rome: Trapizzino aka a pillowy pizza dough pocket stuffed with savory deliciousness such as polpette al sugo and parmigiana. A tasty modern twist on traditional staples. #Trapizzino #pontemilvio #rome (at Trapizzino Ponte Milvio)
