Food, Wine and other Beverages

Travel Belles don’t just love food and wine travel, we love bringing home reminders of the culture with us in the form of inspiration, knowledge and recipes.

Ahh, bella Roma. Perhaps no other European city is as much a delight for the senses as this sprawling Italian capital. Enough art, beauty, and culinary wonders can be found within the square-mile that constitutes the city center to make any well-intentioned traveler’s head spin; and as the old Italian saying goes, “Roma, non basta una vita” – Rome, a lifetime is not enough.
