It's one of the few spots
in Rome (or maybe the only one) that can allow itself to overturn
the rules of the game... As if by magic (given off by its century-old
history) the roles are inverted, and the truth is that certain stars
are only talked about if they come to the "Pace" and not
the exact opposite, which takes place in other spots that instead
"pay" a debt of gratitude to famous visitors. The list of
celebrities who frequent the bistrot (Libery-style in marble and wood
with a Corinthean column in the center of the room) is just about
infinite, enough to fill a book: Beat poets Alan Ginsberg and Gregory
Corso, painter Sandro Chia, Francis Ford Coppola, Al Pacino, Bob de
Niro, Prince, the Rolling Stones, Patty Smith... And even the Pope
(His Holiness came to have breakfast at dawn together with the diplomatic
staff of the Holy See) and Madonna (the singer, not the virgin) fleeing
from the paparazzi. The cafe is also renowned for its beautiful waitresses,
for whom even the VIPs line up. Recent visitors include Rupert Everett,
Ela Weber and Monica Bellucci, though it's impossible to name all
of the illustrious habités of the cafe, a true "monument"
of the Dolce Vita.
