Our dish — the plate we'd order here firstFave
Small almond-paste sweets, made by the house each autumn in three classic colours. They began as broad beans offered to the spirits of the dead in ancient Rome, the house says, and we'd ask for all three.
Also on our table
- We'd ask for fave, the almond-paste sweets, in all three colours: white, pink and brown
