Latium and Rome specialties

Suppli al Telefono

Rice croquettes stuffed with mozzarella cheese (and, perhaps, other ingredients), then deep fried. When the balls are opened and pulled apart, the cheese stretches out like telephone wires, hence the specialty's graphic name.

Stufatino alla Romano

A well-seasoned veal stew.

Zuppa Inglese

Literally, English Soup, but really a rich, rum- soaked, custard-layered sponge cake covered with rum-spiked whipped cream and candied fruit. It is definitely Italian in origin.
