Food in Rome
- lucas__: Does anyone know a place for pasta that isn't a total tourist trap near the Pantheon? Everything around here looks so fake with the picture menus.
Transport in Rome
- sarah_88: The metro is fine but the buses are literally never on time. I waited 40 minutes for the 64 yesterday and ended up just walking.
Hidden gems in Rome
- marcov: Go to the Aventine Keyhole if you have time. Its a bit of a walk but the view of St Peters through the garden gate is wild.
Costs in Rome
- jennak: Eating out is actually cheaper than I expected if you stay away from the main piazzas. Found a spot in Trastevere where a pizza and beer was only 12 euro.
Social life in Rome
- davey_p: Where do people hang out on Friday nights? Looking for a bar area that isn't just study abroad students.
