Lunch with Ugo

 Ugo Perego is the Bishop of Rome 3 and the Director of the Institute of Religion in Rome so we see and work with him regularly.  He has taken us to lunch a couple of times.

 This type of restaurant is called a fraschetta. 
 Ugo lives in the town of Arricia which is South of Rome and is famous for their roast pork.

 I have never loved olives, but these olives are much better than the canned olives.  They are pretty good.
 Mozzarella di buffalo is the best type of mozzarella cheese.  It is really good.  Made from water buffalo milk.
The pork is roasted with some very good spices.  We have the porchetta often and love it.  It didn't take picture of all the food.  We also had a pasta dish, bread, polenta with sauce, ravioli stuff with pork, salami.  A very good meal.
