San Valentino

Wednesday February 14th , 2007

We dedicate this exceptional evening of love to a man who lived in passion and worked it through his hand of eroticism; Federico Fellini and his beloved film La Dolce Vita. Join Marcello, a celebrity gossip journalist by day and womanizing playboy by night, living and working in Rome during the decadence of the 1960’s.

Torn between the glitz and glamour of his job and an unconscious desire to settle down, the young man wanders through his existence wondering if his is really “la dolce vita”—“the sweet life.” Through the flickering images played through the "eyes" of the dining room we are all a subject of this great work. La Cucina takes you on a journey through taste and time to a Rome that exists in the mind of brilliance.
