I tried the original Fettuccine Alfredo in Rome, Italy to see if it actually lives up to the hype. It’s the same recipe they’ve used since 1907—just butter, Parmesan, and a whole lot of confidence. #italyfood #rome #italianfood

This is THE Alfredo. What you get anywhere else is just another thing. You can’t compare.
😋😋😋
Typical american comparing amerucan style to the original or birth place of the food.
How can he compare when all the ingredients came from the original location.
Has real Italian food… Says it isn't the same as the fettuccine Alfredo he gets from a jar in the USA. Mans palate is busted
Italy is expensive. Deal with it or don't come. The waiter seemed reserved but professional. Better than the song and dance routine for tips in American "food" establishments….
Bro was clearly pissed off about the service and just had to shit on the whole experience,
I think this channel Is not good for fair content and reviews
They’ve got an old-fashion toilet, you know, the box and the chain-thing. We might be able to tape the gun behind it.
It’s not the best Alfredo you’ve ever had. It’s the ONLY Alfredo you’ve ever had.
I would take Italian food over American every single day of the week, maybe not enough preservatives or additives for his taste
45 mins for freshly cooked food isn't a long time, also in Italy we don't rush it's meant to be enjoyed.
Unfortunately I think you may be too used to 5 mins wait in McDonald's or KFC and eating like a slop with people smiling at you all meal to get tips
Bro goes to a tourist trap and acts like he has a hot take that it wasn't great 😂
If you want the taste like in USA maybe stay in USA. I bet in US it has a lot of artificial flavors…. If you go somewhere don’t compare with something else that you use to…. Dumb f
Tbh you were lucky to not have truffle. It would have been so much worse 😂
HISTORY OF ALFREDO DI LELIO CREATOR IN 1908 OF “FETTUCCINE ALL’ALFREDO” (“FETTUCCINE ALFREDO”), NOW SERVED BY HIS NEPHEW INES DI LELIO, AT THE RESTAURANT “IL VERO ALFREDO” – “ALFREDO DI ROMA” IN ROME, PIAZZA AUGUSTO IMPERATORE 30
With reference to your article I have the pleasure to tell you the history of my grandfather, who is the creator of “Fettuccine all’Alfredo” (“Fettuccine Alfredo”) in 1908 in the “trattoria” run by his mother Angelina in Rome, Piazza Rosa (Piazza disappeared in 1910 following the construction of the Galleria Colonna / Sordi). This “trattoria” of Piazza Rosa has become the “birthplace of fettuccine all’Alfredo”.
More specifically, as is well known to many people who love the “fettuccine all’Alfredo", this famous dish in the world was invented by Alfredo Di Lelio concerned about the lack of appetite of his wife Ines, who was pregnant with my father Armando (born February 26, 1908).
Alfredo Di Lelio opened his restaurant “Alfredo” in 1914 in Rome and in 1943, during the war, he sold the restaurant to others outside his family.
In 1948 Alfredo Di Lelio decided to reopen with his son Armando his restaurant in Piazza Augusto Imperatore n.30 "Il Vero Alfredo" (“Alfredo di Roma”), whose fame in the world has been strengthened by his nephew Alfredo and that now managed by me, with the famous “gold cutlery” (fork and spoon gold) donated in 1927 by two well-known American actors Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks (in gratitude for the hospitality).
See the website of “Il Vero Alfredo” for “Alfredo’s franchising in the world”.
I must clarify that other restaurants "Alfredo" in Rome do not belong and are out of my brand "Il Vero Alfredo – Alfredo di Roma".
The brand "Il Vero Alfredo – Alfredo di Roma" is present in Mexico with a restaurant in Mexico City and a trattoria in Cozumel on the basis of franchising relationships with the Group Hotel Presidente Intercontinental Mexico.
The restaurant “Il Vero Alfredo” is in the Registry of “Historic Shops of Excellence of the Municipality of Roma Capitale.
Best regards Ines Di Lelio
It's a tourist trap. It's the only restaurant in Italy serving Alfredo…
Service looked good from what was filmed – greeting on arrival, choice of tables, telling you about the history of the dish etc. The dish itself is quite different to USA style, given there is no cream for example, so not comparable. However, fair enough if you prefer the USA style.
I do agree a 45min wait for food is poor though, especially when we're talking food that is exceptionally quick to make like pasta with butter and parmesan.
try truffle version next
In USA you have white chemical colled cream ,yes
I'd challenge you to count the ingredients in the American version having listened to the history of how the original was created.
If you use other ingredients than in the original receipe it is not a Alfredo anymore. So stop comparing something with the original
