Receiving Mail
by aliante1981
Everybody (well, almost!) likes receiving letters - I certainly do, though there are other, more modern and efficient means of communication - e-mail, phone, and such like. However, if you simply like getting letters or if you need, say, the originals or paper copies of some documents sent to you while you are on the move, you can use the poste restante service. Your best bet is to use the American Express service, which is available for free to clients - you should hold either their card or travellers cheques. They are reliable and present in all major cities.

Household items clothing perfumerie
by Paisleypaul about coin
Department store probably similar to Frasers in the U K or JC Penney in the US, branches throught Italy and a total of six in Rome. The two we visit frequently are on the Via Cola di Reinzo which runs from the Tevere towards the Vatican, which has a basement supermarket, and the one by San Giovanni Metropolitana station (pictured).
Remember it is pronounced with two syllables - co-een
A great shop for finding the unexpected I always come back from my travels with a local cookbook - in coin I usually but some cooking utensils, such as an avocado corer last time I think! Average
the best ice-cream in town!
by sandrasun about Luna di Roma ice-cream shop
Never seen such an ice-cream shop before. VERY NICE SET. the area for ice-cream looks like artic landscape covered with ice with penguins so nice to seem real. the caffeteria looks more like being in the Grand Canyon. All the ice-cream is beautifully decorated and looks fresh and genuine my favourite tastes: MONTBLANC, CHOCOLATE, CINAMMON, PISTACHIOS, LUNA DI ROMA (ricotta cheese, honey and pistachios), MOON AND STARS (chocolate with chocolate biscuits and cream) and all the FRUIT ICE-CREAM which is made of real fruit in season. I love BANANA (tastes of fruit and not of big-babol), FIGS, MELON, PERSIMMON (just a few weeks), PEACH (summer only)
Peace & silent oasis
by mauro_pd about Caffe' Doria
Hangin around Rome can be funny, but after a while you realize it is tremendously noisy :-( ... I was doing that cause I was well ahead of a business appointment and I found this bar/coffehouse just 5 minutes walk from Piazza Venezia; step in and you immediately feel relaxed Cappuccino and a not so bad cake
