HISTORY OF ALFREDO DI LELIO CREATOR IN 1908 OF "FETTUCCINE ALL'ALFREDO"

HISTORY OF ALFREDO DI LELIO CREATOR IN 1908 OF "FETTUCCINE ALL'ALFREDO", NOW SERVED BY HIS NEPHEW INES DI LELIO, AT THE RESTAURANT "IL VERO ALFREDO" IN ROME, PIAZZA AUGUSTO IMPERATORE 30

With reference of your article I have the pleasure to tell you the history of our grandfather Alfredo Di Lelio, who is the creator of "fettuccine all'Alfredo" in 1908 in restaurant run by his mother Angelina in Rome, Piazza Rosa (Piazza disappeared in 1910 following the construction of the Galleria Colonna / Sordi).
Alfredo di Lelio opened the restaurant "Alfredo" in 1914 in a street in central Rome, after leaving the restaurant of his mother Angelina. In this local spread the fame, first to Rome and then in the world, of "fettuccine all'Alfredo".
In 1943, during the war, Di Lelio sold the restaurant to others outside his family.
In 1950 Alfredo Di Lelio decided to reopen with his son Armando his restaurant in Piazza Augusto Imperatore n.30 "Il Vero Alfredo" ("Alfredo di Roma"), which is now managed by his nephew Ines, with the famous "gold cutlery"" (fork and spoon gold) donated in 1927 by two well-known American actors Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks (in gratitude for the hospitality).

I must clarify that other restaurants "Alfredo" in Rome do not belong to the family tradition of "Il Vero Alfredo" in Rome.
I inform you that the restaurant "Il Vero Alfredo" is in the registry of "Historic Shops of Excellence" of the City of Rome Capitale.
Best regards  Ines Di Lelio
