I really need to blog about this.....
The API directors told me of a few good places near campus to get cheeses, international foods, and various other foods. I invited Carolyn along because I knew she would appreciate good food shopping, and probably would encourage me to buy anything that looked like it needed to be in my belly..mmmmm I was right.
We first made our way to what is said to be one of the best local cheese shops in Rome. You could smelll the cheese as soon as you walked in. So I splurged and got pecorino romano, mozzarella di buffalo, and milano salami. I need to go back and take pictures...it also helped that the family that owns it was really sweet, and tried to talk with their hands and in italian since my italian is less than... sufficient. haha.
Our next stop was a lovely chocolate shop, where I picked up an assortment of chocolates with hazelnut, and rice krispies...nom nom nom.
Then we made our way to what was potentially a very DANGEROUS store, because it was an international food stores, full of mexican food, ranch dressing, queso, pancake mix, cake mixes...everything I miss dearly. I guiltily bought a taco kit, queso, tortilla chips, pancake mix, and syrup.
Oh! we also had hummus for lunch, which I had been craving for days. I need to find the perfect recipe for homemade hummus <3
Om nom nom. I cannot wait to make pancakesssssss.
Ciao,
Kate
