Italy With My Son 2012: Rome is Pazzo

The sunshine all day was not expected as the forecast coming into the weekend was for rain throughout. It was nice to experience at least one day of sunshine and bright blue skies on this beautiful island.

Italy With My Son 2012 – Spaghetti With Sea Urchin
Fresh sea urchin is one of life’s great treats. I love its creamy coolness and coffee-like flavor. At Il Chiasso, the chef, Dido made delicious spaghetti with sea urchin. Following are photos of what he did.

Italy With My Son 2012 – Baked Rockfish
