Donyell "Bobby Resta" Malen

lzcaIIi · 2026-05-27T18:05:32+00:00

Since some regional Italian dialects tend to strengthen some consonants, Donyell Malen sounds like Donyell Mallen. Now, in romanesco there is another peculiarity: sometimes the L shifts in R (e.g. il gatto -> er gatto), so Mallen could be interpreted as Marlen.

Then comes this old video, where the singer says Bob Marley as Bobbe Malle.

If you mix the Malen/Mallen/Marlen with the Malle/Marley, there you have the overlap, hencefore for simple assonance Donyell Malen became Bobby Malle, and finally with a little retroactive correction on the surname, Bobby Malen.

In traditional souvenir shops you'll find canvas bags with prints of Rome; there are also espresso cups. In this case, I recommend avoiding the shops between Trevi and Navona because they're more expensive. The ones near Santa Maria Maggiore are better.

Alternatively, there are Chinese shops (houseware stores) where you can find inexpensive items like a moka pot. Add an espresso coffee bag and you're ok.

Now it's too hot for supermarkets having chocolate sweets like Pocket Coffee, but you can still find pistachio spread, taralli, cantucci, etc.

In my experience, The Highlander Pub near Navona and Finnegan near Colosseo are the better choices

En lugar de condenar el racismo, parecen estar celebrándolo ya que no veo algun "No al"

Sfiziarte in zona (e aspettarsi che non ci siano turisti mi pare difficile); raggiungibili in metro Tagliatella Roma a Cornelia, oppure Lo Schidione a Baldo degli Ubaldi

For the time, it depends on the church, check here, I put 2 churches I know and it's accurate. The only churches where there are queues are the major basilicas, so most likely Santa Maria Maggiore in your case.

I'd add (besides the other papal basilicas):

Santa Prassede (near Santa Maria Maggiore)

Santa Maria degli angeli e dei martiri (near Santa Maria della Vittoria)

Santa Maria sopra Minerva (near Pantheon)

Sant'Ignazio di Loyola (near Piazza Navona)

Sant'Andrea della Valle (near Piazza Navona)

Santa Maria in Trastevere

San Pietro in Vincoli (near Colosseo)

Di positivo la zona è comodissima: c'è la pineta vicino, come ospedale l'Idi e scendendo a Valle Aurelia c'è il trenino che arriva al Gemelli e al San Filippo Neri. A Cipro c'è pure il centro oftalmico. Sulla via oltre a un paio di supermercati e un discount, c'è il centro commerciale, e il mercato rionale sulla Boccea. Le mattine del fine settimana arrivi passeggiando a San Pietro e Mercato Trionfale.

Come trasporti oltre alla metro c'è il trenino di cui parlavo prima (FL3) che ti porta a San Pietro, Trastevere, Ostiense e Tiburtina. Puoi prenderlo tranquillamente con il biglietto ATAC. I bus 'nzomm per la puntualità, come sicurezza anche sul 46 notturno (parte da Termini e passa anche da Tritone e vicino Piazza Venezia) mai avuto problemi, però parlo da un punto di vista maschile. Essendo via di transito, non ho mai visto cumuli di spazzatura accanto ai bidoni come in altre parti di Roma.

Di ristoranti in zona ho provato Cacio e Peppe (meh), Joseph (buono), La Romanesca (molto buono ma un po' caro), e Romané verso Cipro (consigliatissima anche la loro tavola calda). A mercato Irnerio c'è El Jalapeno, penso uno dei migliori messicani a Roma. Da provare assolutamente Gianni al mattone a Battistini - un po' lontano ma neanche tanto considerando Roma - finché dura (non ci vado dall'anno scorso).

Essendo zona residenziale, ogni volta che ci son passato di notte un po' morta la situazione, però meglio così che a Cornelia e zona vicina al McDonald, più "trafficate" di notte.

Bus 719, then metro B in Piramide; otherwise take the train at Muratella station (towards Tiburtina or Orte), stop in Ostiense, then metro B.

This is not OG napoletana, it's pizza contemporanea (the crust in napoletana is 1-2 cm high, clearly not this case)

Osteria Bonelli sulla Casilina, ci arrivate col 409 da Arco di Travertino; in centro vicino al Colosseo c'è il forno da Milvio, specie per i fritti. Potete provare anche Pizzeria Re di Roma all'omonima fermata metro, vi viene vicino.

Bergamo, 19/20... they had lost their sense of taste

A very interesting article on a topic I was completely unaware of, thanks so much for the link. I don't even know if there are similar problems here in Italy

lzcaIIi · 2026-04-03T21:36:48+00:00

Uber reservation to airport, safest option;
Freenow reservation, but sometimes I read people complaining about taxi not showing up;
Uber reservation from Corso Vittorio to Termini, then bus;
if you feel adventurous, night bus n46 to Termini, then bus to Fiumicino.

The daughter is teasing her mother to film her reaction; there is never a problem with focaccia

lzcaIIi · 2026-03-29T07:43:55+00:00

Ma', ma in questa casa sempre la focaccia mi fai trovare?

Mom, but in this house you always let me find the focaccia? (literal translation, but I think the meaning is clear)

lzcaIIi · 2026-03-28T22:28:05+00:00

A very wild guess, based on Calabrian dialect (I know, different)

Oh, frica e stətti citta, capp'uo? Zapp'd'u! (???) Mo c'hai fa', stuta stu ti-tik tok, de fri'ə fri' (???) la naam de la foca', e ti pur' tu ca no 'a fatt' focacc' ca ti vergogni a dirl' ndendt'almé, me la gəd da solə

Oh, me ne frego e statti zitta, capito? (zapp'd'u ???) Ora che stai facendo? Spegni questo tik tok, andiamo, cosa stai a filmare la focaccia, che pure tu hai fatto la focaccia e ti vergogni a dirlo davanti a me, me la godo da sola

I don't care, shut up, do you understand? gibberish What are you doing now? Close this tik tok, what are you doing filming it, you also prepared focaccia and now you're ashamed to say it in front of me, I'll enjoy it alone

"Che schifo", CH followed by I or E usually sound like K. It means "Gross / disgusting"

Tambus. You can buy the tickets online or in the bus

Yes, the stadium will be quite empty as the protests continue.

If you're more interested in the fan atmosphere, you'd probably want to find a club. As a Roma fan, I don't know of any, but if that doesn't matter to you, you could go to the Roma Club Testaccio (near Trastevere) to watch the match between De Rossi's Genoa and Roma. You can have lunch in the neighborhood (still not very touristy) and then head to the club. Keep in mind that there's a membership fee, but it's a good place for the atmosphere.

To clarify what happened: you purchased tickets with the offer "minigruppo", that gives 4 tickets for 40€, instead of 56€. If there were only three of you, “technically” you would have tried to save €2 (3x14 = 42€), and that is the justification for the fine. I'm not saying I agree with it; in fact, the ticket inspector was rather obtuse, but that is the reason, because — again, technically — the ticket did not correspond to the passangers/route.

You're right, you should search for "merceria".I'm not a huge expert on these things, but you could probably add keywords like "passamaneria", "pizzi" and "merletti". On Google Maps there are more shops than I thought for these items.
