Roman’s: Spaghetti with Pepperoncini, Leeks and Prosciutto
The menu at this Fort Greene favorite changes all the time, but there’s always a variety of pasta dishes available and, if you’re lucky, you’ll get to enjoy the spaghetti with pepperoncini, leeks, and prosciutto. Combining salty, fatty prosciutto with spaghetti is a classic choice, but the addition of sweet, onion-y leeks is a smart choice, with the bite of spice and acidity from the pepperoncini lending just enough brightness to keep this dish from feeling too heavy.
