Supplì, trapizzino, pizza al taglio — Rome's evolving street food scene blends tradition with innovation.
Plan your Italy trip →Supplì: Fried rice ball with tomato ragù and mozzarella. Pull it apart and the mozzarella stretches — hence "supplì al telefono" (telephone wire). €1.50-2.50. Pizza al taglio: Pizza by weight from a counter. Bonci (Pizzarium) near the Vatican is the best in Rome. €3-5 for a filling portion. Trapizzino: Invented in 2008 by Stefano Callegari — a triangular pizza pocket filled with traditional Roman recipes (chicken cacciatore, oxtail, eggplant parmigiana). €3.50-4.50. A modern Roman classic already.
Testaccio (market + nearby street food shops) → Jewish Ghetto (fried artichokes at Nonna Betta) → Centro Storico (supplì near the Pantheon, pizza al taglio on Via del Governo Vecchio) → Trastevere (evening trapizzino and craft beer). Walking distance between all zones: 30-45 min total.
