Bella-Italia: A 3-City TourArticle By: Anita Draycott
Headed across the pond? Read our tips on travelling through romantic Italy.
Last spring my husband and I treated ourselves to a whirlwind Italian romp. Over eight days we marveled at the ruins in Rome, discovered some unique ateliers in Florence and became seduced, yet again, by Venice. Our jam-packed journey, including open jaw flight into Rome and out of Venice, train passes and three or four-star hotels cost less than $2100 each (about $500 less than the previous year's price) -- which left some Euros for a few splurges.

At Ristorante del Pallaro, Largo del Pallaro 15, the slogan is, "Here you'll eat what we want to feed you." There's no menu but you can't go wrong with Mama Paola's home cooking. Steps from the famed Spanish Steps, Palatium Enoteca Reggionale, Via Frattina 94, serves foods and wines of the Lazio region in a high-tech setting.
