Luxury Italian motorbike brand Ducati has opened a stylish bar / restaurant / coffee shop in Rome, the Ducati Caffé. Located at Via delle Botteghe Oscure 35, the Caffé serves drinks and full meals and is adjacent to a Ducati showroom should you decide to purchase a superbike after dining. Of course, the Caffé serves espresso and Ducati's own Desmorosso wine, which my colleague Deidre Woollard wrote about last year, a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 10% Carmenere grapes. The menu showcases Italian specialties (naturally) with an emphasis on regional products and cuisine. A retail boutique on the premises carries a full line of Ducati-branded apparel and merchandise. The décor is sleek and modern, echoing Ducati's motorcycle designs with a red, white and black color scheme and chrome details. And yes, the waitresses are hot.
