"Credo proprio che il buon vecchio Ephraim Lessing quando scrisse l'aforisma, divenuto celebre ai giorni nostri grazie alla campagna del @martini, "L'attesa del piacere Ăš essa stessa il piacere" non avesse mai provato i dolci di @pasticeria.boccione a Roma i Ho fatto quaranta e dico quaranta minuti di fila , stuprando secondo dopo secondo la mia incapacitĂ  di stare fermo e buono in serenitĂ , pur di provare la loro Crostata di Ricotta e Visciole di cui parlano in tutte le guide e food blog possibili, ma ne e' valsa assolutamente la pena. Il piacere che ho avuto mordendola e' stato decisamente piĂč apprezzato dell'attesa A La porzione che ti servono e' assolutamente monstre, ad ogni morso ti esplode in bocca il dolce della frolla, la leggerezza della ricotta e il pungente delle Visciole. lo . vista la fame che mi era venuta aspettando il mio turno. non ho saputo resistere ed ho preso anche un trancio di Pizza di Beridde o anche detta Pizza Dolce Ebraica. La Pizza di Beridde, Ăš un dolce della tradizione ebraica che viene preparato con un impasto senza lievitazione al quale si aggiungono uvetta, frutta candita e frutta secca, di una bontĂ  eclatante. Per darmi un tono e non sembrare sfacciato non ho mangiato tutto assieme e la Pizza , l'ho mangiata il giorno dopo a colazione. Un minimo di decoro ci vuole no? 😁 - Pasticceria Boccione - 📍 Via del Portico d'Ottavia 1 "

"Pasticceria Boccione is a famous Jewish bakery. The bakery was established in 1922 and has been run by the same family for four generations. Pasticceria Boccione is particularly renowned for its traditional Jewish-Roman pastries, such as the iconic Pizza ebraica (Jewish pizza), a sweet and savory cookie made with almonds, candied fruit, and raisins. Other popular treats include Maritozzi, a sweet bread filled with whipped cream, and Biscotti ebraici (Jewish biscuits), a type of biscuit made with almonds and honey. The bakery is located in the Jewish Ghetto neighbourhood in Rome, which is known for its rich history and cultural heritage. It is a popular destination for both locals and tourists who are looking to sample traditional Jewish-Roman cuisine and desserts."
"An iconic bakery serving up one of the best desserts in Rome. Pasticceria Boccione is a bakery in the Jewis Ghetto, open since 1815! A family owned business that has gained tremendous fame across the city and with tourists, for very good reasons. It is a very small, simplistic space, and be ready to queue up a little. The desserts all look burnt, but it's how they've always been made and how they are meant to be. Must try here is their 'crostata di ricotta e visciole', the famous ricotta and cherry pie."

Mentioned in these guides

Fascinating places in Rome - a little bit of this, a little bit of that, mixing classics with some unpopular, hidden gems! Where to eat/drink (including a bunch of beautiful rooftops), where to shop (outlets, bespoke & made in Italy - brands you rarely find outside this country) and what to visit around (gorgeous sights included, so be sure to check them out and take lots of pictures). Highlights: đŸ›” Vespa - is an Italian luxury brand of scooters and mopeds manufactured by Piaggio. The name means wasp in Italian. An Italian icon since 1946. You’ll see many of these all over the city. 🍕 Roman style Pizza - we encounter "pizza al taglio," which means "by the cut". The scizzas, which are a type of scissors, are used to cut this pizza into square-shaped slices. This helps to maintain the structure of both the toppings and the crust. There is also “pizza bassa”, with a thin base. Roman pizza is practically the opposite to Neapolitan pizza: it is crispy and they are not afraid of toppings. A classic on all menus in Rome is the Capricciosa: topped with ham, mushrooms, olives, artichoke, an egg and tomato. Oil is added to the dough and there is much less water than the Naples version. đŸ„Ż The maritozzo - is a classic sweet pastry, traditionally packed full of whipped cream, which has satisfied Romans for centuries. The dough-based bun is typically eaten in Rome for breakfast but can also be eaten as a hefty snack, or dessert, throughout the day. ☕ Ristretto - is Italian for "short shots", and that's exactly what this shot of espresso brings to the table. Its main difference is that it takes a shorter extraction time, and uses less water therefore the flavor is rich and bold, and very intense. 🍧 La Grattachecca Romana - a favourite icy drink with fruity flavor; for the Romans, the grattachecca is sacred - strictly prepared by hand in the historical kiosks of the Rioni Trastevere, Testaccio and Prati, in the lively Ponte Milvio area and Trieste and Trionfale districts. Grattachecca derives, in fact, from the action with which the “ghiacciata" (ice) is produced: with a special tool, the ice is scraped off a block, called the "checca" in Roman dialect. đŸ›ïž When it comes to shopping, Rome can be quite the haven for designer brands, but there is no other fashion house more Roman than Valentino Garavani. The brand’s design (its famous studs) has its origins in the Renaissance architecture of Rome - the “bugnato” technique of the ancient Roman buildings. The largest Valentino store (in the world) lies here, in Rome, on the famous Piazza di Spagna site.
