Editing Rome (section)

== Eating, Drinking and Gelato! ==
Rome is full of great places to eat and drink, but there are some places that are simply there to rip you off-and possibly give you a stomach ache! Here are recommendations of good places to get your eat on!
=== Restaurants and Pizzerias ===
[http://www.chagat.it/ Chagat at 66th] Take Away <br />
Via Santa Maria del Pianto, 66<br />
Roma<br />
(Behind the Synagogue)<br />
This is one of the best place you can find to eat Shawerma, Pitta & Co. as well as salads, sandwiches and pizza. It’s Kosher. <br />
Very friendly atmosphere and... it’s cheap!

=== Cafe's ===
[http://www.santeustachioilcaffe.it/ Sant' Eustachio]<br />
P.zza Sant'Eustachio n. 82<br />
Roma - Italia<br />
(Near the Pantheon)<br />
This cafe is one of the most famous in Rome. They have been producing roasted coffee beans since the 1930's. The house specialty is the GranCaffè, a shot of espresso mixed with sugar and cream, but the exact recipe is said to be a guarded secret. They sell ground coffee in the bar to take home, as well as chocolate covered espresso beans and other candies. There is always a good mix of Italians and tourists inside.<br />

=== Gelato ===
'''Il Gelato di Claudio Torcé''' <br />
Viale dell'Aeronautica 105<br />
(near Laurentina metro stop, closed on Mondays - always open during summer)<br />
<br />
The shop is simple but you'll find they have some of the best gelato ever! The 'Gelataio', Claudio Torcé, has the ambition to transform everything edible on earth into gelato. 
You'll find 100 different types of gelato varying from 20 fruit, 60 cream, and 20 cremolato and semifreddi flavours. All are made without artificial colouring and preservatives.<br />
To give you an idea of different combinations available here are some CouchSurfers suggestions: 
* Chocolate with Paprika
* Pear, Chianti and Raisins
* Zabaione with Passito di Pantelleria or Marsala 
* Peperonata (sliced peppers cooked with oil, tomatoes and onions), soft cheese with walnuts, strong cheese with pepper, mortadella with pistachio nuts. 

Don't twist your mouth - get creative and try them first!
