Because of the holiday weekend, we were not able to get together until my last night in Rome, in fact I extended my stay for an extra day to be able to see her.
She took me to her favorite restaurant in her neighborhood, a Sicilian place called La Norma. Oh, we showed up at 8pm, and we were the first customers. They were just opening their dors. I'd forgotten how late everone eats in Roma, very late. Other diners did not even start showing up until after 20:30.
Manuela's was a more traditional plate of a vegetable spaghetti.
This was the local sicilian wine I drank. It was all mine as Manuela was not drinking.
It was a great way to be able to say Arrivadiercci, Roma.
