Rome Bans Late-Night Munching
Starting this month, tourists in Rome will have to get their pizza-and-pasta fixes in before hitting the bar scene, as late-night snacking will be officially outlawed.
Authorities in the Eternal City are looking for ways to quiet the town's rowdy tourist-fueled bar scene. They already go against the European norm by closing most bars by 1 a.m., but apparently that isn't doing enough to stem the party tide, as revelers tend to just move the fun out into the streets, soaking up the alcohol at the city's omnipresent roving ice cream and snack trucks.
But not anymore—a new city ordinance that goes into effect this month orders all food vendors in the city—mobile stores and more traditional ones—to shut it down by 1 a.m. as well.
Hmm…no WiFi and no late-night eats. We're not feeling too happy with you, Rome!
