Rome Tip
by Andrew_Liu
SPAGNA SQUARE
Many years ago I read an article in which said that Italian is one of the most smart on the world. It¡¯s true. When I visit the great steps on Spagna square, I saw some policemen being on their duty. Smart face and luxurious uniform make me getting them into my camera. While I was pressing the button, a beautiful girl came into camera lens. Hero and beauty are often being the theme of novel, film, opera, TV drama, etc. I hadn¡¯t thought it become the theme of my picture this time.
Kayak the Tiber
by phred1910
While I wouldn't do it, as the river didn't look very rapid or clean for that matter...we saw several people kayaking up and down the river... Kayak - there appeared to be rental places along the river...
Wine bar Trastevere
by Museeuw about Wine bar
I forgot the name but in a corner on the Piazza Giuditta in the Trastevere area there is a very good wine bar. There is room outside, but also inside it is very nice. The wine was delicious and they have a whole selection of excellent bruschetta's. And the two girls who held the bar open that night were very friendly.
Roma Speziale is a must!
by WanderingFinn about Gran Caffé Felixiani
First of all this -officially a caffé- was the next restaurant/café/pub to us.
The waiters were well dressed (black trousers, black vests, black bowties and white skirts. Yet the place was not formal at all, but their dressing made you feel welcomed.
We used the place mainly for drinks before or after going out dining or having fun. It was open until 02:00.
Despite the presence of the main railway station Termini the place was safe as the Carabinieris patrolled the area and even the bar every 5 minutes or so. The "Roma Speziale" - drink the guys made for us! I wondered why the guys laughed so much, and later on they told their secret: the drink they made consisted of several different strong liquors and was invented by themselves.
The sense of humour of the staff and the customer service oriented guys were great. You always got a smile or some crazy humour which was always making me feel good.
Osteria-Pizzeria in Lido Ostia
by Jeannkelly about Segio & Serra
Simple but definitely well-frequented trattoria. Make sure you make reservations before coming as the place could get crowded.
They are close on Tuesdays. Their specialty are seafood plates. Try the antipasto di cozze o vongole and you could never go wrong with any of their first plate. They definitely have good first plates (primi).
