Postcards from Rome.

Looking for some souvenir in Rome?

What about some delicious Chocolate covered coffee beans from Caffé Sant'Eustachio?  The most celebrated coffee in Rome (reviewed also in the New York Times).  Its historical roaster dates back to 1940s.
Piazza Sant'Eustachio, 82 (near the Pantheon).



Or a fancy pair of Italian leather gloves?  A charming little shop is just off Piazza San Silvestro  (this is where I go but there are a few in Rome).  As you enter you'll see photos signed by movie stars and celebrities from the 50's, 60's and 70's.
Solo Guanti -Via di San Claudio, 70.



Why not an old print of Rome?
One nice address is Mercato delle Stampe:  an interesting little market specialized in old prints of Rome (not far from Piazza del Popolo) .
Largo della Fontanella Borghese.





You'll see soccer shirts everywhere in Rome. 
An excellent address for soccer fans is the official Roma team wear - A.S. Roma shop is at Piazza Colonna 360 (near the Pantheon).
