Eating In Rome

One does not go hungry in Rome! We were recently there for two days to give my sister and her family the speedy fast tour of the city before they headed back to the US. One of our favorite places to eat is Trattoria Valentino on Via Cavour within walking distance to the Forum. It is run by nice people and the food is very local and fresh. The night we were there we ate outside...a little chilly but WE ATE OUTSIDE!!! IN ROME!!!

Starters: meats, beans, mushrooms, artichokes

Canalloni right from the oven

Lunch the next day was fresh appetizers

Bruchette

Espresso

Rick, Olivia and Fredrick waiting for the food at Valentino's. We must have just sat down because the wine glasses are empty and the table is bare. But before we knew it the table was full and so were we!

Sue, Eileen and Nancy...we had a good time on our side of the table too!

Yes, we were serenaded by these two guys. It was a crack up! They played a Frank Sinatra song! It was the perfect way to top our crazy whirlwind tour of Roma.
