District: Donuts. Sliders. Brew. The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas Level 2, The Boulevard Tower 3708 Las Vegas Blvd S Las Vegas, NV 89109 Yelp Well it sure has been a while since my last real update!  Big changes in my life have made blogging difficult.  I should rename my blog “Overworked. Underfed. Beyond Exhausted.”  Discovering…

Retrobottega

Retrobottega Via della Stelletta 4 00186 Roma RM Italy TripAdvisor   We decided to stray from the more traditional Roman/Italian fare visiting this fairly contemporary restaurant.  It seemed like more of a local joint, if not at least tourist free.  That seemed promising since we hadn’t had too much luck with Giolitti, which was overrun…

Giolitti

Giolitti Via degli Uffici del Vicario 40 00186 Roma RM Italy TripAdvisor Our search for gelato continues.  We were in love with Grom and hoped for more great things with this famous and ever popular gelato parlour.  The hoards of customers amped up the anticipation. The flavor selection was plentiful compared to the other gelato…

Cantina e Cucina

Cantina e Cucina Via del Governo Vecchio 87 00186 Roma RM Italy TripAdvisor Back to Rome! The hunt for quality food in a city chalk full of tourist traps begins again. Crispy Roman Artichoke Artichokes are a Roman thing, so as they say “when in Rome…”  Deep fried and crispy.  Can’t say it was anything…

La Terraza di Lucullo

La Terraza di Lucullo Via Giuseppe Orlandi 4 80071 Anacapri NA Italy TripAdvisor I accepted that our visit to the Amalfi Coast wouldn’t really bring any “wow” when it came to food.  Up until now, I was pleasantly surprised.  The food was certainly more satisfying than Rome.  With it being the end of the trip,…

Verginiello

Verginiello Via Lo Palazzo 25 80073 Capri NA Italy TripAdvisor We visited the Blue Lagoon earlier in the day and worked up a nice appetite when lunch rolled around.   From the marina area, the restaurant didn’t look too far of a walk.  Boy did we regret trying to be Cheap Man Charlies and skip the…

Villa Margherita

Ristorante Villa Margherita Via Campo di Teste 4 80076 Capri NA Italy TripAdvisor I didn’t know this about Capri before planning our trip, but the island has a low season.  Many hotels, ours included, close for the fall/winter time.  We were lucky to plan things out before this low season started, but I could tell…

L’Angolo Del Gusto

L’Angolo Del Gusto Via Boffe 2 80071 Anacapri NA Italy TripAdvisor Toward the end of any long trip, the laziness starts to kick in.  Sight seeing becomes less important.  Sloth like activity level becomes routine.  The Amalfi Coast is not a bad place to be lazy, since the place is mostly about enjoying the beautiful…

Da Vincenzo

Da Vincenzo Viale Pasitea 172/178 84017 Positano SA Italy TripAdvisor Da Vincenzo had pretty solid reviews.  Some fellow hotel guests even told us it was the BEST meal they’ve had in Positano.  I was glad I made reservations in advance.  The place was full and had quite a few parties waiting.  We just waltzed right…

La Taverna del Leone

La Taverna del Leone Via Laurito 43 84017 Positano SA Italy TripAdvisor I just found this by looking to see what had good reviews close by.  It was such a short walk from our hotel, which made it so convenient.  Walking is probably not the intended means of transportation in this part of the Amalfi Coast,…

Next2

Next2 Viale Pasitea 242 84017 Positano SA Italy TripAdvisor Next2 came highly recommended by a friend of The Annoyer.  It seemed to be one of the nicer establishments in Positano. Sfogliatella Sfogliatella is an Italian pastry that resembles a lobster tail.  It is famous in Naples, but we did not have enough time to check…

Elisir di Positano

Elisir di Positano Cafe Viale Pasitea 90 84017 Positano SA Italy TripAdvisor Since our AMAZING hotel included complimentary breakfast, which we always caught pretty late, we tended to skip lunch.  This resulted in us getting hungry at odd times in the afternoon.  We stumbled across Elisir di Positano during exploration of this picturesque coastal town….
