Breakfast at Settembrini

Having woken up late this morning, we decided to have a light breakfast in one of my favorite places in Rome –  Settembrini. Over the last year, this has become of one hottest spots in Rome for its great food, service and atmosphere. It is important to highlight that Settembrini is open for breakfast, lunch, happy hour, dinner and after dinner!!!

Besides an excellent and vast wine list, Settembrini prepares great cocktails served with scrumptious finger food: small panini with mozzarella, tomatoes and pata negra ham; fish tartare with mayonnaise and seaweed; duck breast with spinach and orange; Japanese style tuna spaghetti; bread, butter and anchovies.

I love love love this table!!!

Below our breakfast this morning: two delicious cappuccinos, one croissant and a fruit tart.

Below it says: “To say that we should not change our drinks is a heresy”, Jean Anthelme Brillat- Savarin. Do you get the picture how this place is serious about drinking?

  10. thank you so much, that is lovely! I love your posts they are so evocative and make me want to jump on a plane. I have noticed a lot of food photographers using blue as a background in dishes and ceramics, so sure you could get your blue in there. I’ve been dreaming of taking our little children to Italy next summer, where would you recommend for a 1st big family holiday abroad (I would love some sun, its been a while since I’ve had a good dosage!)

    • Thank you for your kind words!!! As far as vacationing in Italy during summer, I think Sardinia Island is great because it has kids-friendly resorts with stunning beaches. Another beautiful Region is Puglia (Apulia). Please feel free to contact me at talesofambrosia@gmail.com should you need further information!!!

And thank you for including me in your list of blogs that you’re passing the award to. I’m very flattered, coming from you, but I hope you won’t mind if I don’t pass it on further as I decided when I began blogging that I wouldn’t participate in these. Thank you very much for the compliment, though!
