Oh my Gucciness, my mom did that while I was growing up. I learned how to get my carbonara on when I moved to Europe. Damn, I love the traditional carbonara.

Now go to Rome and get it there. I really miss proper carbonara and Amatriciana after moving from Rome to northern Italy.

Tell him to not go to restaurants within sight of a famous monument and never if there is someone in the street convincing people to come in.
Or if you want a concrete recommendation, go to Zi Umberto in Trastevere for awesome Roman peasant food. But you need to book.

Curious, is their preference guanciale o pancetta? I tried both, and guanciale is my favorite.

guanciale, 100%.
If you want to piss off an italian make carbonara with cream and pancetta
