The Origin of "Spaghetti with 8 Tomatoes”
A dish that celebrates tradition and explores innovation: "Spaghetti with 8 Tomatoes" by Chef Francesco Ferretti embodies the paradoxical and indissoluble bond between novelty and history. Available only from June to October, this creation is a culinary journey that begins with the selection of eight varieties of tomatoes, each with its own characteristics, in collaboration with Orto Giusto. It is a dish that, in its apparent simplicity, reveals a world of flavors, textures, and aromas, embodying LA ROQQA’s philosophy towards organic and sustainable cuisine deeply rooted in local culture.
