Horse Fever: The grand caffe Rome
The Gran Caffè Roma, still easily recognizable today, because the name has remained the same: the bar of Gabriella, the woman from Mandrake (Gigi Proietti), is located in Piazza d'Aracoeli, in front of the Capitoline Hill. Behind the bar, in Piazza Margana, in the ghetto, is Palazzo Velli Cardelli: the entrance is famous for the "Ventresca" post office, to which Er Pomata (Enrico Montesano), who lives here, owes 300 thousand lire.
