I know this is going to sound completely insane since you're in Italy but the best Indian food I ever had was in Rome at a place called Maharajah. It's on Via de Serpenti near the Colosseum. Truly spectacular.

And while you're at it, head to the Hotel de Russie for an evening drink on their back patio. It's lovely. It's on Via del Babuino right next to Piazza del Popolo.

I did a movie in Italy a few years ago & had the pleasure of spending 5 months there (hence the Indian food - I got kind of sick of pasta after awhile). I'm so jealous. Enjoy you're time.

I’d be interested in your thoughts on traveling alone, too. My jaw dropped a little at megan’s comment. I love eating out alone and traveling alone…you meet so many great people that way! And, if you’re not feeling like people, well, speaking for myself, I rather like my own company. I’d imagine you would too.

Try throwing out “Io parlo un po’ l’italiano” and gesture juuust how tiny an amount of Italian you know. I find that’s more helpful. The best way to learn is through conversation, so this is a good way to indicate you have the language skills of a three year old.

Sorry, I can’t get past the words “Porcini mushrooms and the roasted pork”. *drool*

I LOVE Italy.

But, seeing as how I am Latin, the noise was not exactly unexpected XD
