"Hold on to your hats: Alfredo sauce doesn't exist in Italy!
Alfredo "sauce" as we know it has a complex history that originates in this unique restaurant in Rome in the 1920s, and flies straight to the USA via two famous Hollywood actors of the time, big fans of a dish served here.
Fettuccine Alfredo really took off in the US, but never in Italy. If you'd like to taste the "original" recipe, made with just butter and Parmigiano cheese, you must visit this spot.
Reservations advised.
