AI summary of what 2 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about the Frate, a masterful, crispy fritto misto that defines the soul of Antica Friggitoria Il Frataio. The overall vibe is one of unpretentious, joyous street-food perfection.
“This frate is a donut that looks like a monk's tonsure. I got it from the legendary Antica Friggitoria Il Frataio, which has been making frati since 1920. It's still warm, super soft, and the frying is nice and dry — you could eat 10 or 15 of these. It's soft and sweet like my husband.”

Bombolone al Pistacchio
We also got a fantastic pistachio bombolone. They had many flavours, but this morning we felt light, so pistachio. The pistachio cream is good, but the dough itself is spectacular. Antica Friggitoria Il Frataio gets a 10/10 from me.
