Very chill drinks by the water

Our first dinner in Cinque Terre was utter magic. Food was delicious, but the ocean view was the MVP of the evening! Tonight is going down as one of the most memorable dinners we’ve ever had!

Lemon & basil gelato

Food was very underwhelming. Also the traffic driving right next to us the whole time wasn’t great.

Tasty pizzas and aperol spritz’s!

Dinner tonight was at Rimessa Roscioli. Another tasty meal with an awesome wine selection! Tonight we tried several wines — sadly my photos came out blurry. Still, I can share what we tasted! 1) Lambrusco from Emilia-Romagna, 2) an Orange wine from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and 3) a Merlot also from Emilia Romagna.

For our second dinner in Rome, we ventured out to the Esquilino neighborhood to have dinner at SantoPalato. I learned about this small trattoria from Stanley Tucci and it also topped all the lists of “must-eat places” in Rome I researched. It was absolutely worth the hype!

Amazing pizza! Out go-to while in Rome.

First gelato in Rome! I got a chocolate hazelnut and it was amazing.
