I spent a week in Prati recently at a business convention. I found this petite organic grocery…read morestore on my way back to my hotel in the evening on the second day. The gentleman working the till noticed that I was pregnant and exhausted, and he slipped a packet of candied ginger into my shopping bag. I was surprised that a man would notice my pregnancy, surprised that he would feel sympathetic, surprised that he would know ginger helps with nausea, and surprised that he would offer such a gift. It was a generous and welcoming gesture of a kind you are far more likely to encounter in a small town than in frenetic, anonymous, and often anaesthetized Rome. The produce at La Capra Rampante is fresh, high quality, and in season. For a small store, it has a fairly large selection of fresh fruit and vegetables. A back room contains natural and organic shampoos and other hygiene and cleaning supplies. The organic dairy products are in the back of the store. There is a fairly large selection of cereals and biscuits, honey and jams, wine, fruit juices and teas. If you are staying in an apartment with a kitchen, check the refrigerated shelves that provide salads and fresh pasta. You will walk through the produce section as you enter the store, and this will be the last section you pass through on your way to the till. I appreciate such a layout because the first transit of the produce section allows me to collect the most important items on my list, and passing through on my way out means that any impulse purchases consist of fresh fruit. La Capra Rampant is the kind of grocery store that will support your resolution to eat healthier snacks and more fresh produce - it is well worth a visit.

The cappuccino was delicious... this is really how it should taste so if and when In Italy this is the place to do a sit down cappuccino. Of course you can grab and go at the bar located in the lobby of the cafe or just stand at the bar and enjoy your cappuccino. Seems like the locals go here too. We felt like locals!!!

In the past, I knew of Gelateria Navona, just a few doors up from the actual piazza, and that was…read moremy go-to place for gelato in Rome. Expecting it to be there one year, I walked over to Piazza Navona and Gelateria Navona had evidently closed. I would then get gelato here and there. I then learned that Giolitti is a long standing gelateria and it's also in the historic center. I filed the name away in my head. Then, one day, I happened to walk right in front of it without even looking for it, so I went in. Giolitti is popular and it can be crowded. I'm going to say that I waited about 10 to 15 minutes. You pay at a counter first, deciding on what you want and how much of it, such as scoops and whether it will be in a cup or a cone. Once up at the counter, they don't rush you, which surprised me. I don't take that much time since I don't experiment much, but I still appreciate the courtesy. The price is roughly what everyone else in the historic center is charging. I always opt for the gelato it in a cup so you can "control" the dripping. The gelato - a mix of dark chocolate and two citrus flavors - was "molto buono." That said, just because it's so popular, I'm not going to downgrade Giolitti for it and complain about the crowds. You downgrade gourmet donut places in the U.S. where their fame has gone to their heads. There is also a spacious salon with nicer decor in which you can eat inside. At this point, Giolitti is really the only gelateria in Rome whose name I remember. I would gladly go back and I recommend it.
