Many are long-term residents who write about daily life and vetted dining spots, such as the author of An American in Rome. Culinary authorities like Katie Parla publish deep dives into the city’s food history, while others document niche scenes, from contemporary art on Blocal Travel to social commentary on Rome the Second Time.
