Here you don't read the dishes, you listen to the people who cook them: those who run the dining room and kitchen tell, in their own voice, what's really served and why, and moving from one neighborhood of Rome to another the accent changes but the craft stays the same. The latest addition is the spoken menu of Trattoria da Luigi, in Ponte: a good starting point to understand how listening works in here.

Ristorante Roof Garden Hotel Forum · Introduction
Good morning everyone, I'm Federico Mazochi, maître at Hotel Forum, a historic hotel from 1961, located between the Colosseo and Piazza Venezia. A historic location for events, weddings, baptisms, first communions, confirmations, a simple business dinner, a romantic dinner for two, a get-together with friends. What we offer is a 360-degree service that starts from breakfast with a view over the fori imperiali by day, lit up by the sun, all the way to an after-dinner cocktail. As for after dinner, we welcome any age group, we love chatting with different generations, we love chatting with people from different cultures, we love integrating and helping people understand our culture. What we offer is an essentially classic cuisine, we don't stray too far from the classic standards of our local cuisine, we like to offer the catch of the day because we always believe that fish is an elegant dish, a dish that pairs beautifully with our culture, our tradition. What sets us apart from many others is the presentation of the dish, the taste, the flavor, together with the wine. The jewel, the focal point of our hotel is definitely our American Bar, which makes every small emotion become a great dream, because having an open view over the fori imperiali is something you can hardly find in other locations. What we always suggest is to book ahead because seats are limited, but of course we always welcome everyone. We never simply say no to people, on the contrary we always like to have more friends coming to visit us, more friends who want to discover the culture of Roma, more friends who want to eat something special in a location that's second to none. This is who we are.

I Butteri · Spoken menu
You already know our menu. Let me reveal the secret of our success. Thirty years ago, while riding on horseback in Maremma, I stopped at an old trattoria in Valle Rana, where they served me a bistecca di costa with potatoes and beans, presented on a hot plate with a bay leaf and rosemary. It was so special that this very idea gave birth to the butteri. So if you haven't tried our famous meat served on the hot plate yet, I invite you to come and taste it.
