"Panificio Marè in Prati has so many good-looking pizzas, we’re convinced that one of Michelangelo’s distant relatives is working in the kitchen. Loaves of freshly made bread line the back shelves, while their desserts like jam-filled crostata and diverse slabs of pizza sit front and center. Their pizza rossa is super crispy, with rich, oily tomato on top that’s a perfect balance of sweet and tangy. You should also stock up on the lingue di gatto—delicate, crispy biscuits that taste like the caramelized edge of a cookie—and the buttery strudel studded with juicy raisins. Be sure to take a loaf of bread home with you for breakfast—there’s a reason why many restaurants, like Trecca, serve it at their tables." - annie replogle
