Rome eats pizza two ways: the paper-thin, wood-fired round and the pizza al taglio slice sold by weight. Gabriele Bonci's Bonci Pizzarium in Prati rewrote the slice, while the thin-crust tradition runs through Pizzeria Da Remo in Testaccio and Pizzeria Ai Marmi in Trastevere. The modern Roman pizza has its standard-bearer in Jacopo Mercuro's 180g Pizzeria Romana out in Centocelle, and the late-night seatings hold on at Pizzeria Da Baffetto in the centro storico.
