Rome - Evening Food Tour

We met our guide in Campo de Fiori for an evening food tour. It was excellent. We started with cured meat and wine, then fried rice balls called Suppli (tomato sauce, rice and mozzarella deep fried). We then ate white (plain focaccia) and red (with tomato sauce) pizza. We found out that pizza is sold by weight at takeouts. We also had a very nice blonde beer. We moved on to the Jewish quarter and learned that 2,000 Jewish people were taken from there one night in 1943 and only 16 returned. There are brass plaques outside the houses of those who died. Here we had deep fried artichokes. We walked past the synagogue and theatre ruins. Finally we finished with ice cream. We walked 10 miles today!Read more
