Oh my goodness, what a wonderful evening this was! Our guide was so knowledgeable and gave us many undiscovered gems in the Jewish ghetto. The food at each stop, was simply fabulous. Added to that was great local knowledge by our guide. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is going to Rome and wants an experience that's outside of just another great restaurant.
