Hello, we are spending Easter in Rome, the last time we spent a very little time in Testacio, we hadn't a clue - we just wqndered around aimlessly.

Please, point us to good placea to eat there and what to see?

Thanks in advance

Last time I was in Rome I stayed in Testaccio. Not a lot to "see" as it's primarily a residential neighborhood.

We went to Pizzeria Remo a Testaccio early in our stay & just kept going back. Food was great, it's a popular, happy place & they treated us well.

If you like to shop or browse the Nuovo Mercato Testaccio is fun - food, leather, vintage clothing I recall & small places to pick up a variety of things to eat at tables outside on the southeast side.

Thanks Mme Perdu, long time no speak!
I'll have a look at your recommendation, sounds as if you loved it.
It's meant to be a Jewish area - I wonder where one can find Jewish food.

On our first visit to Rome, we went on an Eating Italy food tour in Testaccio and then to the museum, Centrale Montemartini. It’s rather an interesting place: a decommissioned power plant turned sculpture museum. My engineering husband loved it. And because it’s outside of the tourist center, it was blissfully uncrowded.

Spelt it wrong

Ahh, now I remember - we ate good Jewish food in the Jewish Quarter/ Ghetto - very central, old historic area

Go to Volpetti's on Via Marmorata to buy cheese to bring home. 😁
They will vacuum-pack it for you.

There's a great place where I've had lunch several times, can't remember the name right now. I will look it up.

The restaurant I referred to is Bucatina Taverno Testaccio on Via Lucca di Robbia. It's not too far from Volpetti's. Perilli's is also down the street from Volpetti's. I haven't been there but have read good things about it.
