The food in Rome is absolutely amazing if you love carbs looks I do. From pizza to pasta to gelato, it is literally a dream come true. Not to mention it is super affordable. There are a lot of tourist trap restaurants (i.e. the ones where they have greeters stand outside and try to get you to eat at that establishment) but the true roman eateries almost always offer pitchers of wine for around 10 euros, and the classic pasta dishes (cacio e pepe, amatriciana, carbonara). Also, if you can find a mom and pop cafe, you’ll find delicious coffee (not the watered down version like we serve in the states) and if your really lucky, fresh doughnuts! I spent quite a bit of time in Rome and never tired of the carbs!
