Need help with evening itinerary in Rome

My husband & I plan to eat somewhere in the Jewish ghetto/Campo di Fiori area one night and then take Rick Steves' suggested evening stroll back to our hotel near the Spanish Steps. Can anyone tell me how long a long walk it is to the Campo di Fiori from Vecchia Roma (Piazza Campitelli)? <BR> <BR>We wanted to use it (campo di Fiori) as a starting place on our stroll back to the Spanish Steps via the Piazza Navona, Piazza Capranica, Piazzo Colona, and the Trevi Fountain. So we already have a walk ahead of us. <BR> <BR>Should we be eating closer to the Campo di Fiori like in Piazza Farnese? <BR> <BR>Also, where is Camponeschi? Someome here had mentioned it to me but I can't find the info (address/atmoshpere/food)? <BR> <BR>Thank you.

Dear Lisa: <BR> <BR>Camponeschi is situated at 50, piazza Farnese (the square next to campo dei fiori on the southwest), its phone is 06 687 4927. <BR> <BR>It is closed for lunch and on Sundays. Taking the meal al fresco with a view of the Palazzo Farnese is recommended. The full à la carte meal will set you back 95,000 to 155,000 lire (a 13% service charge will be added). <BR> <BR>All this information comes from the guide Michelin (Italy), I have not eaten there, but in my experience "Michelin" is quite reliable. <BR> <BR>Enjoy your trip <BR> <BR>Phil.
