Milk*What it is
Guanciale, Pecorino Romano, black pepper. Think of it as carbonara without the egg, older, simpler, and more intense
Taste translation
If you liked Carbonara, this is the stripped-down, OG version. Pure and intense.
Zen's note
Most tourists don’t even know this exists. It’s the mother of Carbonara and Amatriciana. Order this and the waiter will respect you
