La Dolce Vita on the Famous Via Veneto

After strolling the Borghese Gardens, what could be more perfect than a mid-day merenda in the glamorous Via Veneto neighborhood. We dined on an imaginative antipasti misti of grilled zuchinni and eggplant, roasted peppers, marinated fave beans and Italian peas, and prosciutto. And, caramel panna cotta to die for served in the Italian version of a Southern mason jar!

According to Wikipedia(!), the Via Veneto neighborhood "acquired international fame as the centre of la dolce vita ("the sweet life").... The 1960 film La Dolce Vita by Federico Fellini immortalized Via Veneto's hyperactive lifestyle, lights and crawling stream of honking traffic."もっと詳しく
