A visit to Luciano Cucina Italiana in Rome, Italy, to watch Chef Monosilio preparing Spaghetti Carbonara, his signature dish, which brought him the nickname King of Carbonara. Receiving a Michelin Star at the sweet age of 27 years, he later decided to open a more casual style restaurant which is his current Luciano Cucina Italiana in the Centre of Rome -

    Tell you what I loved. He went to plate it and decided it wasn’t right and went back and tossed it with some more pasta water. No ego for the camera. He knew he needed to go back and did it. That’s a real chef who knows what he wants.

    "we put less salt" - adds half the box, I love this video. great job cooking and nice filming and editing

    "we make small cubes" - makes huge cubes "we put less salt" - adds a ton of salt "Guanciale has to be hot" - Guanciale is at room temperature "now is ready" - adds more water and continues stirring ... I love this guy :D

    My wife and I were lucky enough to eat at Luciano's in Dec 23. The carbonara lived up the hype. Simple flavors perfectly executed. No one flavor overpowers another and every flavor is present in the dish it is perfectly balanced. absolutely wonderful.

    I loved this video. I was taken to Luciano about 9 years ago by a Roman friend. I ordered the carbonara and the chef allowed me to watch the preparation. It was a highlight of that trip. The dish was heavenly. I still remember the taste and texture. Divine.

    Not only he is so generous to share his recipe in this video, but he even gives business cards with the same recipe written on them for everyone that wants in his restaurant!

    Why am I watching this while hungry? Looks incredible - Carbonara is my favorite!!! Thank you for sharing...
  • Ate there 9th April 24. The carbonara was amazing but my serving had a lot less guanciale….. The staff were charming to a man and great fun. I will definitely eat there again next time I’m in Rome

    Love how Chef Monosilio was ready to plate but then he saw it wasn't right, so he waited till it was perfect!!!
