This culinary tour offers a distinctive chance to relish Rome's iconic flavours within a few hours. The journey begins in the heart of the Prati district, where you'll explore historic bakeries, lively markets, pizzerias and traditional trattorias. You'll start with pizza bianca and pizzette rosso, topped with tomato sauce, before venturing into Mercato Trionfale - one of Rome’s largest local markets. Here, you'll sample Pecorino Romano and fresh ricotta, followed by bruschetta adorned with extra virgin olive oil and ripe tomatoes.
The gastronomic adventure continues as you indulge in Rome’s pizza al taglio (pizza by the slice) and taste supplì, the city’s signature rice croquette. You'll also savour four wines from Lazio’s renowned wine regions and a maritozzo, a sweet, buttery bun. For an authentic Roman experience, two dishes are a must: Carbonara, with crispy guanciale, Pecorino Romano, and egg; and Cacio e Pepe, a harmonious blend of pecorino cheese and black pepper.
The tour concludes with a visit to an artisanal ice cream shop, where you can choose from a variety of traditional and innovative flavours. This is followed by a stop at a small-scale coffee roastery for a coffee tasting session featuring six different blends and single-origin beans. This tour is an exclusively culinary journey that provides an authentic insight into the daily gastronomic experiences of Romans, allowing you to discover the flavours that define their everyday life within just a few hours.
