Pizza rossa is a simple Roman street food you’ll see everywhere in the city.
In this video, we visit three bakeries in central Rome and talk about how locals actually eat it.
Pizza rossa is found in neighborhood bakeries all across Rome. It’s inexpensive, freshly baked, and usually eaten standing outside, still warm. In this video, we focus on what pizza rossa actually is, why it matters in everyday Roman food culture, and how to enjoy it the way locals do — without overthinking it.
