In the old Jewish Ghetto next to historic Palazzo Cenci, Piperno has been in business for more than a century. It is the place to go for Rome's extraordinary carciofi alla giudia (fried whole artichokes). Meals are served in three small wood-paneled dining rooms and at a handful of tables outdoors. Try filetti di baccalà (fillet of cod), pasta e ceci (a thick soup of pasta tubes and chickpeas), and fiori di zucca ripieni e fritti (fried stuffed zucchini flowers).
