I'm in Rome and tried a few different pizzas, but kind of dissatisfied

First of all I'd like to say I respect Italian cuisine, it's clearly healthy and fresh in terms of ingredients.

I've tried a few different places, and left disappointed with the pizza. Most were floppy and not crispy at all, also quite moist in terms of oil/water. That was a surprise as I expected crispy bases.

I assume different regions in Italy make different styles of pizza so maybe just the city I'm in.

Also a huge bummer was the lack of flavour, they were mostly a bit bland. Flavour is flavour, no matter where you go, when you experience rich tastes and flavours it's always a pleasure, I just say this as I don't mean I wanted more salt but maybe I expected the tomato sauce to have a richer taste, I heared so much about the taste of tomatoes here.

I'm from the UK by the way. So I'm not comparing it to American pizza's. Here in Rome Ive tried expensive pizza restaurants to local pizzarias to the bakery/cafe around the corner so I got a wide range of prices and styles.

Ern, yeah... I feel like it's one of those things where I've just not tried the best hidden gem pizza's.



bon appetit
