You can't visit Via Veneto and NOT go to Harrys Bar, immortalised in Fellinis' 'La Dolce Vita' Harrys' is now a swanky upmarket {read expensive} bar/eatery where celebs can still be spotted. A piano bar, it has a regular {as of May 2007} duet performing nightly from 9pm. Sometimes guest artistes will avail themselves of the piano and entertain the patrons. Most recently Australian Pianist Fiona Cohn played there.
