Prati Lunch Tour | Roman Vacations

Step into the quiet elegance of Prati, where Roman tradition meets gourmet flair. This lunchtime journey invites you to explore one of Rome’s most refined residential neighborhoods—far from tourist crowds, but full of authentic flavor.

Begin with a perfectly pulled espresso and a crisp, creamy cannolo at La Cannoleria Siciliana—a sweet start rooted in Sicilian heritage. From there, follow your guide through the bustling aisles of Mercato Trionfale, Rome’s largest indoor market. With over 270 vendors offering fresh produce, local cheeses, artisan meats, and irresistible street snacks, the market is a feast for the senses and a masterclass in Roman food culture.

Next, it’s on to the legendary Bonci Bakery, home of Rome’s most celebrated pizzaiolo. Gabriele Bonci’s Roman-style pizza is more than a local favorite—it’s a global sensation. Savor a selection of seasonal toppings served on his signature airy crust, and see why he’s earned the title “Pizza Hero.”

For the main event, settle into a seated lunch at Al Giardino del Gatto e la Volpe, a hidden gem known for its warm hospitality and elevated takes on Roman classics. Dine al fresco in their charming garden courtyard and enjoy freshly made pasta, thoughtfully paired wines, and a true taste of Roman generosity.

End on a high note with a visit to Gelateria Iamotti, where seasonal ingredients and organic flavors transform every scoop into a work of art. It’s the perfect sweet finish to a Prati lunch worth lingering over.
