Rome Food Neighborhoods Weekend in
Campo de' Fiori, the Jewish Ghetto, and Trastevere to Testaccio Market: two days of Roman pasta and street food.
Follow food as the thread through four neighboring districts. Day 1: the Campo de' Fiori morning market and fried artichokes in the Jewish Ghetto, then cross Tiber Island to Trastevere for dinner. Day 2: a morning at Testaccio Market for offal dishes and supplì, then climb the Aventine Hill to see the keyhole, and head straight to the airport from a nearby station. Only sights along the way are included, the pace is relaxed, and it suits repeat visitors, food lovers and couples. You can also sign up for a market food tour.
Seasonal dishes such as fried artichokes are best in spring. Many small trattorias close in mid-August.
