Welcome to one of my favorite restaurants in Italy. I have dined here for lunch and dinner several times, during different times of year, experiencing the various seasons’ ingredients and their resulting interpreted dishes. Every time I return, I am amazed by the quality and the workmanship and the attention to detail in both the ingredients used, and the artful presentations. Cucina Ai Monti, Bracciano, Roma.

[RECIPE] Brutti Ma Buoni ("Ugly But Good" cookies) Recipe
[RECIPE] Porcini mushroom risotto (ricetta)
[RECIPE] Torta Di Mele (Apple Cake)
This is a beautiful looking and deliciously tasting cake! I remember my grandmother making it when I was a child, back in Rome. Since I have plenty of time on my hands this month (don’t we all?), I thought to revive the recipe and make the dish. I am so very happy to say that it is as delicious as I remember it being, and very easy to make.
