Bruschetta as Street Food
The increasingly frenetic rhythms of our days often require us to take short breaks to be able to eat our meals.
We don't always have the opportunity to go home and find a hot dish. We are obliged to catch something on the fly in order to save time.
This condition has actually favored the spread of the phenomenon known as Street Food.
Foods prepared in small places, markets or carts, to be consumed on the street at the moment.
And the bruschetta from Brusco Lo Strabuono, thanks to the intuition of three young people from Rome, a few weeks ago they entered the Capitoline Street Food scene.
In the center of Rome
The architect Valerio Bortolan, the engineer Stefano Bugoni and the chef Alessandro Bursi are three young Roman friends who love good food.
This passion, combined with the desire to get involved, pushed them to enter the restaurant world.
But with a saturated market, something original was needed. Something that could conquer everyone, without giving up the idea of good food. Here is a small place called Brusco Lo Strabuono in the heart of Trastevere.
No stuffed sandwiches or elaborate dishes are served here. The only thing you can eat at Brusco Lo Strabuono are slices of toasted bread at the right point with different types of ingredients on top. Maybe accompanied by something fresh to drink.
A menu of about twenty types of bruschetta, seasoned with recipes from our local cuisine and the possibility of transforming our bruschetta from good to very good with the addition of a bonus ingredient.
Brusco Lo Strabuono: a winning idea
Brusco Lo Strabuono is the first successful bruschetteria of the Roman nightlife, but not the one in Italy.
There are many precedents for Italian cities and above all Johnny Bruschetta in Florence stands out, who recently opened another bruschetteria, in a maritime cuisine version, in Marina di Massa.
The originality and the fact that the bruschetta is a dish that can be eaten at any time of the day, manages to capture the attention, and the taste buds, of the public.
And the success of Brusco Lo Strabuono seems to justify the efforts of the three young friends. They managed to conquer, through simple bruschetta, the hearts of the Romans.
