hi my name is Julia Gonzales and I welcome you to my channel if you've never been here before
I love to travel to explore different cultures and amazing delicious foods
this week we're diving into the wide variety of amazing pizzas in Rome if
you're interested in great pizza options on your next trip to Rome
that have been tested and approved and this is the video for you
so we're staying on the same block as Bonci which Harold
thought he'd be eating at every night if it turns out it's it's a little it's a little
busy just just a little [Music] it's clear Bonci is no secret Gabriele Bonci is
known as the pizza hero here in Italy and you may recognize him from the Netflix series a
Chef's Table Pizza the show dedicated to the art of pizza in addition Bonci has
been highlighted in The Layover with Anthony Bourdain and he's been on the Bake Off Italia
even with all that new variety Gabriele Bonci is still a man dedicated to his
craft of pizza and it's why I'm so excited to join the line tonight
so they close at 10 and we got there at nine got my number
and then as soon as I got my number they came and took the numbers so
we're probably one of the last peoples to get pizza but at least we're getting some
Bonci is known for using the freshest ingredients the toppings on his pizzas depend on the season
to be honest I wasn't sure what to expect being the last number of the night but
Gabriele wouldn't serve anything less than the best and he himself brought out the last fresh
pizza of the night okay I think that was worth the adventure because we actually got to see him
yeah I could have taken a picture but I just you know I'm just not one of those people it's like
take a picture maybe someday I'll get the courage but it was really cool to see you don't usually
see that it turns out I did get a picture with Bonci let this be a lesson sometimes you just
need to put the camera down enjoy the moment so now back to finally dive into our Bonci Pizza
ricotta with sausage we got um some prosciutto this is some
Spanish ham so I'm gonna try the ricotta because that cheese just looks so yummy
just got a nice crisp bottom but like the interior is like fluffy and light
look how cheesy this suppli is saying insanely delicious everyone was super nice in line patient
a couple of doggies even were hanging out for the people behind the counter were super nice
the the one girl who waited on us knew like three different languages and she was speaking Italian
English Spanish it's like amazing the languages they know here um but everyone was super nice and
it was a really great experience just a quick tip in case you didn't know Bonci also has a bakery
in room called Panificio the night we went there was no lines plenty of amazing baked goods like
my favorite the maritozzi and pizza so in case you can't wait in the line check out panoficho
located in the Trastevere District you'll find Seu Pizza Illuminati the first pizzeria
by Pierre Danieli Sue the restaurant has a modern hip Vibe and is warm and inviting when I say warm
I mean literally warm because of this enormous pizza oven used to cook these amazing pies the
SEU menu is filled with so many creative pizzas to choose from ingredients including
fish to croquettes cream to watermelon they cover some amazing combination I was a little
overwhelmed to be honest with so many options so I decided to go with the classic margarita
that was really good
delicious Harold went with the Seuwarmer it's marinated chicken with Middle Eastern
spices mozzarella cheese tomatoes curly and Dives yogurt sauce and garlic and olive powder [Music]
Pizza Illuminati is very creative in their pizza making and it was a lot of fun I would
highly recommend making a reservation because they are a favorite here in Rome
welcome to Antico Forno Roscioli which translated means ancient oven the Roscioli bakery
has been in business here in Rome since 1972. the small bakery serves up some delicious baked goods
and pizza to not only the line out the door but also to many Roman hotels and restaurants
our mission here today is pizza but I have such a sweet tooth and I was just dying over these
baked goods Roscoli Pizza is baked in five foot long slabs and has a very thin crust Unlimited
[Music]
so we decided on the broccoli and sausage and the mushroom pizza time to taste test okay [Music]
[Music]
oh wow I don't even like mushrooms but these are good foreign
so before I had the pizza I have to say I was a little skeptical of this place you know banchi has
lines because it's Bunchy I thought rasholi might have lines because it's in a touristy neighborhood
but I was wrong for sholey you showed up you're good
and I have to be honest it was probably one of the best thin crust pizzas I've ever had
foreign
[Music]
just a short nine minute drive from Vatican City it's an elegant spot to try some good
old traditional neapolitan pizza and pair it with a quality sparkling wine [Music]
so we're at pizza and Bubbles which is supposed to be pizza and Prosecco
and I was hand down all about it until I realized we were sitting
outside yeah yeah so I'm gonna I'm gonna hunker down here try to stay warm yeah
once again I chose the classic margarita I loved how the bubbles on top were just
slightly burnt to perfection and as for the taste ready okay eat it
really really good tomato sauce is just perfect
Harold enjoyed the Capper chosa which included
mozzarella artichoke all this powder half a hard-boiled egg mushrooms and prosciutto
so now we're heading back to the very popular area of Travis teve
to pay a visit to a place called Trapazzino or well you can guess Trapazzions
Trapazzino is the iconic Italian pizza pocket and Trapazzino the location has been serving
them up for a decade now because they are so easy to eat on the go the carryout window
had a large line but we quickly found out they had plenty of seats at the bar and I
have no problem taking a seat ordering a glass of wine and taking my time to enjoy
[Music]
start with to go to sleep [Music]
the piece nice and tender [Music]
I can't tell if there's Ginger you have to tell me there is a strong taste to it
I think it's Ginger it's Ginger well let me try I'll try this it's
not very well used in Italian cook indeed right yeah [Music]
which one do you like better I
think wow I'm not a huge fan of Ginger and you're gonna have to tell me
so after debate I was wrong it's not Ginger it's more like
[Music] amist the chaos Trappizzino is a great place to indulge in the
iconic pizza pocket and enjoy a glass of wine
now over to lindamientade which translates to the elementary
have you ever tried fried pizza
it's like a puff of air inside so when you cut it it just kind of flattens
it was a really light and fluffy treat it was very delicious and I would recommend it to someone who
might not want to indulge in a full Pizza this is a nice little treat to go with your beer
now time for the Neapolitan style pizza with mozzarella cheese and ham I tried
cutting this a little bit it just was not working so oh it's so hot it was crushing me
[Music]
oh wow that's really loud
it's a thing for us the lots of cheese lots and mozzarella cheese and the ham
check out that yeah it's perfectly made okay because you're getting a
little bit of that that Blackness at the wood fire oven does that like blackness
I really enjoyed it here they had a football game on they had a ton of great beers on tap an
amazing Pizza it's a great place to hang out and enjoy some beer and food with some friends that
concludes this week's video I hope you enjoyed the pizza please remember this is not a favorites
