Tourist friendly tie store Rome
As above. Would like to pick up a good quality tie (Drake's / Shibumi firenze level) on a trip to Rome. Ignorant English speaking tourist friendly would be really nice.

I can help with food places like for carbonara/cacio e pepe, but not too familiar with tailoring/clothing shops there sorry 😔

This includes a visit to Wool’s Boutique Uomo and a few vintage stores!
This was ridiculously useful, thanks.
wools was great! i highly recommend it
the prices were $120 a tie, which is drake's 2018 prices lol
and they're well made
and giovanni is great and friendly
theres also some vintage stores and random menswear stores on that same road
so check it out
tell giovanni ethan wong said hi @Elvander
🫡 Post was tailor made. Those vintage stores look amazing but wools is right on the nose for what I was looking for.
I’m heading to rome in two weeks and would appreciate those recommendations:)
for Carbonara my absolute favourite is "Ristorante la Villetta dal 1940", other really good restaurants for pasta places are Tonnarello and Osteria da Fortunata. I'd recommend to try at least once carbonara, cacio e pepe and amatriciana
for street food you can try Trapizzino, otherwise something typical is Supplì (fried rice balls) for that a good place would be supplizio
I'm not really expert regarding Roman style pizza or pinsa, but there are also really good neapolitan pizzerias "Gino Sorbillo" and "da Michele"
thank you 🙂
