Food Scene
This place is just around the corner: you could almost spit on the people queuing outside in the evenings (don't!) from the living room window. Typical thin Roman pizzas, cheap and delicious.

Very cool little joint serving some rather unusual French-influenced food. Always packed, so you might have to wait a bit, but it's worth it.

Drinks & Nightlife
Very cool place to hang, as a cafe during the day and a very popular nightspot on weekend evenings, especially in the summer. The adjoining restaurant is also a great place to eat, but book ahead!
