Eat fish, ethnic and romantic in Rome

February 24th, 2009 by the writer

After having booked a appartamento a Roma, what can you do? Surely a sightseeing tour is the first activity, but also taking advantage of the gastronomic offers in the city is a must. The Eternal City is not only famous for its monuments and the remains of a great past but also and rightly so, for good food.

Today I bring you three suggestions for spending a great evening depending on what kind of food you like: if you want to try eating fish, eating ethnic food, or if you are simply looking for a romantic place where the atmosphere is very special.

So, speaking about seafood, a good option is the Picchio Rosso, which is located just outside Rome, in Italo Piccagli 101. The starters range from mango salad and lobster, to hot Albiola squids. For main courses, the choice is wide: sea bass and turbot, with all preparations taking place with fresh fish caught just offshore, special recipes are also prepared by the chef. For desserts there are different specialties: warm mint ice cream like dessert with chocolate sauce and almond flakes with hot chocolate which is the specialty of the house.

For a typic ethnic restaurant, we recommend the Himalaya’s Kashmir in via Principe Amedeo 325-327. The restaurant is distinctive and welcoming, with wood and velvet decor, and with Indian prints on the walls that take us into a fantasy and to a distant, mysterious world. There are 3 rooms separated by curtains and strings and here you can enjoy Indian and/or Pakistani specialties with their unmistakable spicy taste. There are three main menus: fish, vegetarian and non vegetarian. Amongst other things, you can try bundles of potatoes and peas, vegetable fritters and the Tandori chicken cooked in the Indian clay oven. To alleviate the taste of the chilli, soft drinks are served with yoghurt and fruit. The restaurant’s specialty is that all dishes are served in a typical frying pan in the centre of the table, making the meal a really fun shared experience.

Finally, do you want to spend a romantic evening at a restaurant? One of the must do’s for this kind of evening is the Zodiac, a restaurant that now boasts 42 years of experience. It has also been used for the location of successful movies and once you’ve seen it, you will soon understand why … it overlooks the city from over 136 meters high up, offering an incredible view. The dishes are typically Italian and Roman, including pizza cooked in a wood oven. Sometimes there are also evenings of jazz and cabaret shows for a truly complete evening experience.

You want to know about other restaurants in Rome? There is a lot of choice, one year wouldn’t be enough to discover all of them. Meanwhile, for starters you can always book a appartamento Roma and use it as a starting point for exploring the city and its surroundings.

There are some obvious ones, and some are even things that you may have chosen when you were a little boy. Think of the Hulk, Transformers, Superman, or even a firefighter. You don’t have to be big and buff to pull them off. Some thinner guys think they have to avoid these themes, but that is not true.

A South Dakota dream

February 13th, 2008 by the writer

Having spent a good amount of time studying South Dakota tourism I feel almost like I’ve been to the state. The truth be known, I’ve only been to Sioux Falls once and that was for a weekend of work. Having said that I can close my eyes and visualize most of the major attractions. When I think of Mt Rushmore I can plainly see each president carved into the side of the mountain. The pure physical size of each sculpture is amazing in my mind. I have spent hours in my mind wandering around the petrified forest up in the badlands. I have imagined climbing a petrified tree and being amazed at the expanse of the forest. From that perch I also imagine seeing out across the badlands and seeing the occasional coyote chasing down a groundhog. After that I climb down and get in the car for a drive to the Crazy Horse monument. I even imagine the scenery along the way. When I get to Crazy Horse I stare in amazement at the time it must have taken to construct such a thing. It’s usually about this time that I awaken from my daydream and resume my chores being refreshed by my mini-vacation.

My Embarrassing DSL Story

August 28th, 2007 by the writer

Picture the scene, It’s early December, The house has just been decorated and the Christmas tree’s up. I have spent the last two days putting up my outside Christmas display with my collection of flashing Santa’s, reindeer and anything else to do with Christmas. I plug them into my auto-timer so they will all come on at night even if I’m not there. I step back, admire my work and head indoors. I make a mug of hot chocolate to get into the spirit and sit back to check my emails. This is when the mood turns. I can’t connect. It tells me there’s no dial tone.

I didn’t remain so happy for long. I checked all my connections and everything seemed to be working ok. So I telephoned my DSL broadband company to ask if there were any problems they were aware of. They tested my line and said it was fine. Oh well, time to try something else. I re-booted my PC and tried again. I connected for about 20 seconds and then had the same problem. I was tired after being outside all day and my good mood began to vanish. I un-installed my modem software and re-installed it thinking that this might do the trick. Still no joy. I checked everything I could think of before phoning the DSL service providers again. They still said there was no problem and even though I insisted everything was fine my end they just kept passing me from one department to another.
