Calamari!!!!


Calamari-fried squid or the name Clary and Mari use to refer to themselves.

Italians and Americans alike rave about the calamari at Tony's, aka Osteria dell Moro, in Trastervere. The restaurant looks like a tourist trap, but there's a reason why I had ordered the calamari for dinner 3 nights in a row, no joke. What makes this one so special? The spicy tomato based sauce Tony serves it with, and probably, sadly enough, the closest thing to my mami's salsa in Roma. Also, the calamari mix is lightly breaded and the portion size is enough to share, so there's no need to pick a fork battle with friends over the tubes and tentacles.
