“Its elegant but its also a neighborhood bar.
Both a destination place and a date bar.
Rome is our favorite city.

My favorite hotel in Rome is the [Hotel]Locarno.
Its not a huge hotel but its very art nouveau,” he told T+L.
“It’s elegant but casual and not stuffy.
Its on the smaller, more boutiquey side and its old and lovely and in a great location.
We just love being side by side with all that antiquity.
It is so profound.”
We just wander around and get lost," he added.
“Luckily in Italy, you do OK no matter where you go.
If you see Italian people there, you know it is a good spot.
With Michael Imperioli

I love flying uninterrupted time to read books.

To me, its very pleasurable because I know Im not going to be interrupted.
I am just going to sit here and read.

Unlike his character onThe White Lotus, Imperioli is not a big resort guy.
Im much happier when I am in a historical setting.
Id rather be there than at the best hotel in town if its out of the way.”
I would love to do it again," he said.
“Mike White is such an incredible director and just a great human being.
He manages to be thought-provoking but entertaining at the same time.
He brings up themes and situations that are challenging like, How do I feel about this?
but its entertaining and people respond to that and that is not an easy thing to pull off.
I thinkThe Sopranosdid that as well.
Its a sweet spot that not a lot of artists can hit and Mike and David Chase can.
As for aSopranos-themed drink, Imperioli says hell discuss it with his mixologist.
