Al Ceppo

Frommer's Review

Because the place is somewhat hidden (although it's only 2 blocks from the Villa Borghese, near Piazza Ungheria), you're likely to rub elbows with more Romans here than tourists. It's a longtime favorite. "The Log" features an open wood-stoked fireplace on which the chef roasts lamb chops, liver, and bacon to perfection. Other intriguing items include fusilli pasta with bacon and artichokes, and a breaded, grilled fish of the day. A true delight is the tender beef filet with black truffles. To warm your soul, order the white chocolate and peach terrine with a fresh mint sauce.
