ask them kindly for pre-sales
they might comply

Ask the gypsies.

Maybe you can ask Marta to drive Gianni up to Rome so he can nick some cloths for you? WeakMonday seems to employ him for this as well, maybe ask for his experiences?

Cacio e Pepe at Roma Sparita

I've just realised I did in fact go to this place, night before last. Cacio e pepe was top top! It was our intention to go to da Enzo al 29 but there was an obscene queue, so found these guys around the corner.

Unfortunately no fried artichoke available.

Yes and no. Too long, badly produced and translated, that french guy etc. But I liked some of the points he made, when talking about the business environment and so on.

i bet the french guy got parkinson. his videos are all shaky. look at this one

Oh man, there's a really good Italian restaurant there, but I can't remember the name of it. I'll do some digging and find it for you.

off the top of my head, i like the restaraunt il matriciano. traditional roman food and locals.

I agree with this recommendation. I have another that is a favorite, but I cannot recall the name right now. I will update when I remember the name and location.

This restaurant in trastavere is really good too, but very small, fits maybe 15 people. You sit on the counter and the kitchen is right in front you. Menu changes daily. A queue will form about 20mins before it opens for lunch.

Sadly I am not a big time baller (tm), and so there were no fittings with the homeless bearded tailor man.

Had a veri delicious meal at Flavio al velavevodetto.

... Delicious with a healthy dose of montepulciano d'abruzzo.

Also i purchased some guanciale which made a top top carbonara yesterday evening back in blighty.

How big of a bribe do you need to buy some guanciale for me and ship it back to the States?

Sadly I am no longer there. So the cost of a flight dear boy!

Sorry, we always just refer to the place as le cave. It took me a minute to remember the actual name.

Their fresh made ricotta with flat bread is a fantastic way to start things off. We have enjoyed many a meal here without ever looking at the menu.

At the above restaurant I must also mention the fried courgette flowers which were a thing of unsurpassed beauty.
Magical.
Transcendent.

One of my favorite snacks! My uncles and grandfather would make these in the summertime. It was said to be good luck if you got one with a bee in it. I always disagreed.
