"We sampled this dish in a Roman restaurant, Grotte del Teatro di Pompeo, which
included on its menu specialties from Trevisio, the owner's hometown in
northern Italy. The sauce was a subtle blend of slightly bitter radicchio, hot
red chile pepper, and sweet cream. After the meal the owner brought his own
special reserve of homemade grappa with marinated apples and offered it, strong
and tonic, as a fitting ending. Try to find the tiny penne piccoline, which are
pretty and delicate-looking."
