Trapizzino

A triangle of pizza-bianca dough split open like a pita and stuffed with the Roman classics: chicken cacciatora, lingua in salsa verde, polpette al sugo. The Roman fast-food invention of 2008.

Stefano Callegari invented the trapizzino at his Testaccio pizzeria 00100 in 2008 and registered the trademark in 2009. The format crosses the trattoria stew with the pizza-bianca pocket: long-fermented dough baked, cooled and cut into triangles, then stuffed with cucina romana fillings. Trapizzino is now a Roman-Italian chain with the Testaccio flagship as the canonical destination.
