Nathan’s Beef Franks
I know that Nathan’s is a well known brand, but it is not the brand for me. Nathan’s Beef Franks, to me, are much to greasy to be edible. Seeing and tasting all that grease just makes my appetite vacate my stomach. Greasy foods used to not bother me …

Il Gelato di San Crispino
Location: The directive of ‘It’s at the Trevi Fountain’ is only half true. The gelateria is actually hidden down a alley a little further away (Via Veneto direction). They also have no signage at the fountain or anywhere else, even the shop barely acknowledges the name, though this makes …
