The manager at the hotel we are staying at suggested that we try Said - a specialty chocolate place in 135 Via Tiberina, Roma The place is an artisanal chocolate factory and sounded like a place that we would like to visit. We decided to walk along the Porta Tiberina part of the Roman walls. It was an interesting walk despite the rain. Once again we saw how people had used the walls for housing -it would have happened long go and people have been allowed to continue to use them - they probably own the spaces.
