Laysa, a journalist and certified sommelier, invites you to discover the flavours of her Rome—far from the tourist trail and full of authentic charm. In her home district of Prati, near Castel Sant’Angelo (Ottaviano or Lepanto metro), she’ll lead you to cosy wine bars, fresh pasta artisans, and a gelato shop serving what locals swear is the city’s best lemon and pistachio. From breakfast at an unassuming kiosk to aperitivo on a leafy terrace, you’ll experience the city like a true Roman. And yes, even the parrots here seem to speak Italian—loudly and proudly. With Laysa, every bite tells a story, and every glass is a toast to the real Rome.
