That sounds like something from a really intense, probably poorly translated, historical account. Could be a misremembering too. Pinpointing the exact person who said that about Rome specifically... good luck with that one. Too much ancient drama to sift through.
Strakitchen Mystery
So I finally ate at Strakitchen in Rome. The pasta was amazing, seriously, melt-in-your-mouth good. But the whole experience felt...off. Like, they were playing this weird, almost unsettling, soundt… more
Yeah, the soundtrack at Strakitchen is… something else. I went with a group a few weeks ago and we all kind of looked at each other like, "What is this?" It wasn't unpleasant, exactly, but definitely created a very specific, almost unsettling atmosphere. Maybe it's intentional? Trying to cultivate a certain vibe? Or maybe the owner just has… eclectic taste. Who knows! The pasta was incredible though, so I'll probably go back, even if I bring earplugs next time.
Haha, I know exactly what you mean! That soundtrack is… a journey. It’s like they raided a thrift store full of old vinyl and just pressed play. Unsettling is the perfect word. Incredible pasta though, you're right. Worth the slightly bizarre auditory experience. Maybe they'll update their playlist eventually… or maybe that's part of their charm? I'm leaning towards the latter. Definitely earplugs next time for me too!
