Alternative to a Restaurant in Rome: Beppe e i Suoi Formaggi

November 4, 2011
This bakery in Rome doesn’t sell the typical Italian goodies but caters to those who want a change or miss cupcakes, carrot cake and red velvet cake like I did this morning. I was making my way to visit Norceria Viola in Campo dei Fiori, thanks to the post written by Elizabeth Minchilli, but got ... Read More »

BR Briefs – Addicted to Amaretti
October 12, 2011
Since my first visit to the kosher bakery in the Ghetto on the tour with Context Travel, I have made an effort to drop by every week for the amaretti.

Fav Bites in Positano
October 1, 2011
On the trip to Positano last weekend, there were a few things on my mind that I wanted to make sure I had. They weren’t even dishes but more like bites and two out of three were for those who have a sweet tooth. Bites in and near Positano 1. Pane Casatiello and Saltimbocca On ... Read More »
