Per my own words in CityBeat:
Pining for the past is Osteria La Buca on Melrose, which is taking things ancient on Oct. 20 with a wine-paired dinner built from the recipes of the Roman Empire. According to the restaurant, dishes will be re-created from archival documents cataloged by the British Museum of London and the wine will be sourced from producers still fermenting the only way they know how: underground. Call (323) 462-1900 to RSVP.
