 It seems you're sharing a classic Italian dish - Cacio e Pepe, which translates to "Cheese and Pepper" in English! The name itself is a mouthful.

Cacio e Pepe alla strada likely refers to a street-style version of this iconic pasta dish. For those who might not know, Cacio e Pepe is a simple yet rich and satisfying Italian recipe that consists of just a few ingredients:

* Spaghetti or other long, thin pasta
* Pecorino Romano cheese (Cacio) - a sharp and salty sheep's milk cheese
* Black pepper (Pepe)
* Olive oil

The sauce is made by mixing the cheese with black pepper and then combining it with the cooked spaghetti. The result is a creamy yet light dish that allows each ingredient to shine.
