Peels away the layers of history to find quirky cafes, modish enotecas, mama-and-papa osterias and off-beat house-musuems to reveal the many facets of Rome, the deeply civilized city. This book tells us where to sleep, eat, drink, shop, retreat, explore, or just hang out in stimulating surroundings.
