's obsessions with food
today 's my birthday. the dinner my mom asked me what I want to do this year, before reaching thirty. and that 'an interesting question, but' the thing that interests me 'instead - FOOD! we ate at an Italian restaurant, and I asked fettucine alfredo. fettucine alfredo was always my favorite Italian dish that I first lived in Italy, but 'in three years ago in Rome I did not see even once.
believed that "fettucine alfredo" italamericano were a food, or maybe just American, born in short something on the ground of the western hemisphere. Like the fortune cookie.
fact I was looking at a can of pasta sauce in the supermarket in Massachusetts a few weeks ago. The alfredo sauce was canned, and it was written that it was done "in the style of Rome, the city 'where he was born"
pero' tonight my mom told me that she went to Rome in the fifties with my parents (I did not know that she 's never been to Rome) and fettucine alfredo are in fact Italian, or rather Roman, and fettucine alfredo you had eaten in the restaurant where they were created! I said NO NO NO MOM, I said I think he was THINKING OF CARBONARA. She said NO NO 'real, and says that in the restaurant you eat the alfredo with a fork and a spoon and a giant made of gold.
not believe a word but when we returned home I checked the internet and cabbage, she was right! I lived in Rome three years, but it 's my mother who has eaten the alfredo' with a gold fork.
what I will do 'this year? What will I do 'with the rest of my life? You're going to do that? Have you ever eaten with a fork of gold?
