The Pala Romana is a typical gastronomic speciality of Rome, the Italian capital. It is a pizza with a unique style, characterised by a rectangular shape and a thin, crispy base. It is prepared using a pizza dough that is rolled out then left to rise for an extended period of time, resulting in a light and airy texture. The Pala Romana has become a popular option in Roman pizzerias, both due to its deliciousness and for the convenience of being served in slices or individual portions. This dish reflects the Italian passion for good food whilst offering an authentic taste experience in the heart of Rome.
