If you've visited Italy, pizza al taglio (or pizza al trancio) likely became one of your favorite grab-and-go foods. This pizza is baked in rectangular trays (it's not round like Neapolitan pizza) and sold by weight (prices are marked per 100 grams or 1 kg). You choose the size of your slice right there and then. Originally created in Rome, this style of pizza can now be found all across Italy.

Pizza al taglio literally means pizza by cut. A crispy yet chewy pizza is the base upon which the pizzaiolo creates a masterpiece of flavours. Whether it’s a traditional Margarita (tomato, mozzarella, basil) or something a bit more out of the box like pumpkin and Gorgonzola, there is something on display to please every palate. The colours of the toppings draw you in and the flavours do not disappoint.

Add a suppli on the side (a deep fried rice ball with ragu and mozzarella center) and you have a typical Roman lunch.
