Andreas Viestad, in his book Dinner in Rome, argues that there is more history in a bowl of pasta than in the Colosseum. He takes us on a fascinating culinary exploration of The Eternal City and global civilization, exploring the origins of wheat, olive oils, lemons, and sugar, and how they have shaped history. Viestad's dinner may be local, but his story is universal, offering an entertaining and flavorful journey across the dinner table and time.
