Miscellaneous reports - Rome

Bellacarne - kosher meat restaurant in the ghetto. Went because we were walking by, tired, and our guests were craving vegetables, and despite the meat focus they have lots of vegetarian dishes. Nice mezze platter, though of course no tzatziki. Zucchini appetizer thing was very nice, sort of like caponata. Rolled roast veal breast was very good. Somebody ordered their version of one of the Roman guanciale-centric pastas, which unless you keep kosher I would not advise.

They have a whole array of desserts made with soy-milk pastry cream. We got some stuff to go from Pasticceria Boccione instead.
