When in Rome...


Ok, sometimes it is really hard to do as the Romans do. Here we are in this huge cavernous restaurant. It's between 7:30 and 8 p.m., the place is empty except for us - because we are eating early! When we arrived, we saw some people eating in the back section - it turned out they were the staff eating their dinner before starting their shift. Probably after 10 or 10:30, this restaurant will be packed, but you know what, it is too late for me to eat a heavy meal that will stay in my stomach all night. I prefer to be the odd gringo who eats early and goes to bed with an empty stomach (because that is what Oprah told me I should do).
