Trapizzino Rome

Eating new ideas

Rudy from Rome

About me I’ve studied marketing and had dozens of jobs, but I’m still looking for the best route to happiness. During the summer, I manage three B&Bs in Marina di Camerota, Cilento, a gorgeous but not so well-known area. I’m also trying to work online as a content manager but it's not so easy. I’m a smiley guy, I love to meet new people and discover new cultures. Why Rome&#...
""Trapizzino" Rome is a smoky little restaurant with few tables because of the open-style kitchen. My favorites are pollo alla cacciatora, broccoli..."

In Italy, particularly in the south, we have this -maybe for somebody but not for me- impolite practice: when a sauce is gently cooking on the stove, we can’t reject the impulse to take a piece of bread and dip into it and, consequently, almost always have our hands slapped by the chef. The Trapizzino idea was born from this ancient practice.

Stefano Callegari had a brilliant intuition and in 2008 he proposed it to his customers. The success was immediate and now his idea is gaining fans all over the world. The first time I went to the first spot where Trapizzino was born, I was amazed; there was a long line going outside waiting quietly. When my turn came, I discovered the peculiarity of this product: a pizza bread cut into triangle shapes filled with different flavors to choose from.

The shop is a smoky little place with few tables because of the open-style kitchen, although they have opened a new room now to make it more comfortable for their customers. The quality is excellent and the choice of flavors by the owners is superb. My favorites are pollo alla cacciatora, broccoli and sausage and meatballs with tomato sauce, but there are more than twenty served, depending on the season.

A wonderful spot to be enjoyed. Don’t miss it!

About me I’ve studied marketing and had dozens of jobs, but I’m still looking for the best route to happiness. During the summer, I manage three B&Bs in Marina di Camerota, Cilento, a gorgeous but not so well-known area. I’m also trying to work online as a content manager but it's not so easy. I’m a smiley guy, I love to meet new people and discover new cultures. Why Rome I love my city because it's chaotic and beautiful. I love my city because even if you were born here it may surprise you just by looking around with curious eyes; because it's a mix of internatio...

Caffè Ciamei

Oldest license for coffee in Rome

"Caffè Ciamei" has the oldest coffee license in Rome and it's still one of my favorite places in town to get a cup. Try their cremina instead of sugar!

Via Casilina Vecchia

The aqueduct neighbourhood

"Via Casilina Vecchia" is, for me, one of the most intriguing neighbourhoods in Rome. It feels invisible to the rest of the city & forgotten by modernity.
