説明

Wander among the ruins of one of the largest and wealthiest cities in the early Roman Empire and dine on dishes prepared from recipes during that time period. In the mid-5th century, Attila the Hun destroyed Aquileia, which today is a UNESCO World Heritage site. While perusing excavated buildings, you will gain great insight into life in the 2nd century BC. The basilica is particularly outstanding for its mosaics and decisive role in spreading Christianity. You may also see the forum, baths, residential complexes and warehouses around the river bank. To enhance the experience, a local family will cook lunch for you using recipes from The Art of Cooking, a 1st-century cookbook that Marcus Gavius Apicius, an epicure during the reign of Tiberius, created. Unlike today’s Italian cuisine, meals for wealthy early Romans were elaborate, spicy and rich in sauces. Apicius was revered for his elaborate banquets, which eventually lead to his bankruptcy.
