I can’t remember a single trip to Rome in the past few years where I didn’t make a stop at Testaccio Market for one of Mordi e Vai’s legendary sandwiches. After a year of focusing mostly on pizza, we’re switching things up at forno this winter with a savory offering inspired by tradition Italian hot sandwiches First up we got coda alla vaccinara—rich, tender braised oxtail—finished with a sprinkle of pecorino and a touch of dark chocolate. Comfort food at its finest, perfect for the season.

if you are brave enough to fight this morning’s blizzard you will be rewarded with our new festive winter drink: espresso, amaretto di saronno topped with a touch of our beloved maritozzi cream and a dusting of cinnamon ❄️

this weekend’s special: pumpkin spiced cornetto 🎃 was on also last weekend but forgot to tell you.

Sali e Tabacchi Journal is delighted to partner with @forno.london for Pasta Ecologies: Fuoco, a hands-on pasta workshop led by artist and researcher @adriggallo . This unique evening will explore the foundational role of fire in cuisine, bringing to life the concept of “Pyro Commons”—the ways in which fire connects us through shared practices and culinary heritage. Our workshop opens with a conversation around key pasta-making topics: from pasta’s ecological roots to labor, regional traditions, and pasta’s poetic and material elements. Following this introduction, Adriana will guide participants in making a traditional Southern Italian eggless dough using grano arso, a burnt wheat flour known for its deep, earthy flavors. Together, we’ll craft, shape, and finally, cook the pasta, ending the evening with a communal meal prepared by Adriana. Copies of the magazine can be bought with the ticket or at the event! November 15th 6-9:30pm @forno.london 322 Andrews Road E8 4RP Buy your ticket at the link in bio! 🍝
