Another fun fact: commoners in Rome mostly ate out at cafes all around the city - like soup kitchens. Having a kitchen and cooking was reserved for wealthier people.
- simonsarris 8y agoReading letters from the late 1800's and early 1900's this was true in European cities at least among some classes of people. There might be one(?) kitchen in the building. I think every single apartment having its own kitchen and every person having their own set of cutlery/dishware/pots/pans/etc is very, very new.
