Quote:I would have thought it would be basic, typical Roman food. Not anything of the larks tongue variety.
Cheese, some sort of sausage, beefburgers (apparently Romans ate them), bread and stews/ soups. Maybe some sold snails and oysters ? Food on the go. Probably not too different from our usual fast food.
Easy, cheap and satisfying, (I'm sure there's a Pompeian brothel pun here, but I'll resist :wink: ).
I wonder what the hygiene was like and if they were ever inspected ?
A bit of cheap wine to kill the bugs, and ehy, who needs hygiene hock:
Visne partem mei capere? Comminus agamus! * Me semper rogo, Quid faceret Iulius Caesar? * Confidence is a good thing! Overconfidence is too much of a good thing.
