Although just over the River Tiber from Trastevere, Testaccio is very much away from the crowds and is the perfect place to sample authentic local food such as suppli, pastries, homemade pasta, buffalo mozzarella, regional wine and gelato.

But above all, meeting the people who have been creating these foodie treasures for generations.
