"Everybody and their mom might've told you to go to Roscioli while you're in Rome. Beyond being extremely difficult to get into, lately we've found the quality has slipped—maybe that's just what happens when you expand and open a restaurant in NYC. Head to its sibling bakery instead. Antico Forno Roscioli is ideal for quick slices of pizza, supplì, and panini, especially the pizza con patate stuffed with freshly-sliced porchetta, which tastes even better if you order a side of chicory greens, and pile them on top of the pork. Don't forget to pick up a bag of ciambelline, the circle-shaped cookies perfect for dipping in wine or coffee, or a slice of ricotta chocolate chip crostata to take back to your hotel." - Annie Replogle
