The Italian city of Rome has food integrated into life as deeply as history and art. Pasta might be the postcard star, but pizza is an experience. The scent of fresh dough and smoke is in the air, making the experience a memorable one.
Forget the thick, soft Neapolitan base. In Rome, pizza often comes thin and crackling (pizza tonda Romana), or as long, airy slabs cut to order (pizza al taglio). There is also the humble pizza bianca to indulge in.
