Roman cuisine is so much more than the ordinary pasta and pizza that everyone assumes at first instance. Being highly influenced by the 'poor person's' concept of cooking, our cuisine is filled with traditional historic recipes, which have been handed down through several generations and transformed over the course of time. With hundreds of restaurants all serving their own versions of classics and innovative dishes, you will have a culinary experience that will exceed your expectations. Having said this, Rome can be a very confusing and overwhelming city to visit. With so many restaurants, bars and food establishments in general to choose from, it's very easy to fall into tourist traps. This is my guide with all my favourite food and beverage spots that you must visit when in Rome!

In Rome, you'll find two types of pizza: the round one (pizza tonda) and the sliced one (pizza al taglio). 🍕 The round pizza is the traditional kind you're probably familiar with, while the sliced pizza, or 'pizza al taglio,' is sold by the slice. This rectangular pizza is often thicker, and you can choose different toppings for each slice. Both are delicious, just a little different in how they're served! 😋
