Blogging about my experiences and sharing my thoughts about Rome, Italy and beyond.
Most days I am on the run at lunch. Some days, I am actually fortunate enough to sit down and have a few minutes to eat a sandwich. Considering my circumstances, I am always on the look out for quick and affordable spots for lunch. Most of them are usually sandwich places but once in [...]
I came up with this list of 10 Places to Go in Rome as my sister will be in town in a few weeks and there are some cool places that I have discovered since her last visit. As she has been to Rome many times before, she knows that she is better off staying [...]
Going to bootcamp at Circo Massimo may not be so bad after all especially because I have realized there are two really good places to get a treat after a workout. That’s why we workout right, so that we can indulge once in a while (or more). One offers some lovely variety of pastries which [...]
Better known as Palazzo del Freddo Giovanni Fassi, I think they have one of the best gelato in Rome for classic flavors. This was one of the first gelateria Luca brought me to and remembered thinking “This gelateria is huge by any standards and the gelato so unbelievably flavorful”. When we have guests visiting us, [...]
As I have mentioned in previous posts, I am usually on the run at lunch and can only get a quick bite. So when I first heard about Lasagnam from some tweeps (people on Twitter), I had thought about checking it out. However, life gets in the way and got a friendly reminder when I [...]

It’s given that you can get some really good pizza in Rome. What Rome is well-known for is pizza al taglio or pizza by the slice. It’s not a slice of a round pizza but rather these pizza are rectangular and you can decide how big or small of a slice you want. You would [...]
While I was writing the post on Sicilia e duci, it dawned on me that I have never written a post on my favorite bakery in Rome – Regoli. Even before we moved to Rome and would be here just for the holidays, we would stop by this bakery. Along with a few other places [...]
Stepping into this bakery in Rome was heaven and hell all at the same time. Heaven because I loved the selection they had and hell because I can’t have at least one of everything. I didn’t stumble on this charming bakery which specializes in Sicilian desserts by chance. It was thanks to Revealed Rome who [...]
If you are wondering if The Perfect Bun is a restaurant in Rome or a bakery, I can’t blame you. There is the Perfect Bun Bakery and then there is the Perfect Bun restaurant. They are under the same ownership and are just a few minutes walk from one another. While I have had tasted [...]
