Drawing on two decades of research, eating, and storytelling in the Italian capital, Parla shows how the Roman table has evolved from the Iron Age to today and why it remains one of the world’s most compelling.Rome launches with a thorough history through a culinary lens, beginning with its murky Iron Age origins, tracing the impact of conquests through the Roman Republic to the expansion of trade routes during the Empire and a scrappy period through the Middle Ages to ready Rome for its revival into the Renaissance era. Parla covers the political, societal, and economic shifts of the 18th and 19th centuries, from Napoleon to Mussolini and the post-war boom that introduced the “dolce vita” lifestyle, illustrating how people ate through the eras to bring readers into the mindset of present-day Rome.The book contains over 110 recipes, drawn from experts (home cooks, restaurant pros, and food artisans alike) and is organized with a thematic approach: fried snacks and starters; pasta and soup; fish, meat and offal; vegetables, salads and sides; pizza and breads; and desserts. While the city’s beloved supplì, cacio e pepe, and maritozzi traditions are well represented, Parla finds opportunities to showcase a wider swath of Rome’s dining culture with recipes such as a hearty fettuccine al sugo di coda oxtail pasta and a warming minestra di broccoli e arzilla, or romanesco and broccoli soup. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/washington/a-special-holiday-signing-with-author-katie-parla-for-rome/100001975346116409 - **Event Categories**: Art, literary-art, Meetups, fine-arts, food-drinks - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fa-special-holiday-signing-with-author-katie-parla-for-rome-tickets-1975346116409 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 51.13, max: 51.13, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Washington - **state**: DC - **country**: United States - **location**: Bold Fork Books - **lat**: 38.928463 - **long**: -77.03751600000001 - **full address**: Bold Fork Books, 3064 Mount Pleasant Street Northwest, Washington, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Bold Fork Books (https://allevents.in/org/bold-fork-books/18921086) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/ff0a18be87263b9d60e565253b8350d1f69e79847526975c4689b37c48acf37e-rimg-w1200-h600-dc3458a0-gmir.jpg?v=1764026313 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/6d4696738461ff593aab9dc3e07abf3de5230f38e913bca4e3dd67c4c3d7f385-rimg-w400-h400-dc3459a1-gmir.jpg?v=1764026312 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sat, 20 Dec, 2025 at 06:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Bold Fork Books, 3064 Mount Pleasant Street Northwest, Washington, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 51.13 up to 51.13 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Bold Fork Books - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** Art, literary-art, Meetups, fine-arts, food-drinks - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about A Special Holiday Signing with Author Katie Parla for ROME ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "A Special Holiday Signing with Author Katie Parla for ROME", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/ff0a18be87263b9d60e565253b8350d1f69e79847526975c4689b37c48acf37e-rimg-w1200-h600-dc3458a0-gmir.jpg?v=1764026313", "startDate": "2025-12-20", "endDate": "2025-12-20", "url": "https://allevents.in/washington/a-special-holiday-signing-with-author-katie-parla-for-rome/100001975346116409", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Bold Fork Books", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "3064 Mount Pleasant Street Northwest", "postalCode": "20009", "addressLocality": "Washington", "addressRegion": "DC", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "38.928463", "longitude": "-77.03751600000001" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Come Meet Katie Parla, New York Times Bestselling Author of ROME!", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2025-12-20", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "51.13", "highPrice": "51.13", "price": "51.13", "url": "https://allevents.in/washington/a-special-holiday-signing-with-author-katie-parla-for-rome/100001975346116409" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/washington/a-special-holiday-signing-with-author-katie-parla-for-rome/100001975346116409", "price": "51.13", "name": "Signed Copy of ROME + A Holiday Sip" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Bold Fork Books", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/bold-fork-books/18921086" } ] } ] ```
