Best food tour in Rome - Absolutely loved the tour! Edma was a great, knowledgeable host and you can tell that she loves the spots on the food tour. All the food was spectacular, especially the bruschetta in the food market and the carbonara for lunch. Would easily recommend this food tour to anyone.
