Snapshots: Rome - Ferragosto Lunch

It's Ferragosto, one of the major Italian holidays.The city has pretty much cleared out except for tourists and people who work with tourists.One tradition I fully support is the Ferragosto lunch.  This year my friend Erica and I decided to Treat. Our. Selves. and have a proper lunch at one of our neighborhood places Pierluigi.

Unfortunately, it was so outrageously hot, we sat inside.We also sat next to rapper/singer Frank Ocean, which was definitely one of my more random celebrity sightings.It is NOT a holiday in the States.  I had to work today and have a conference call tonight (the L.A. time difference can be a killer sometimes).That said, meeting a good friend for a delicious lunch is a wonderful thing.Buon Ferragosto a tutti!
