"Beloved for hearty Roman fillings, this sandwich stall builds sublime panini overflowing with tripe with gravy, boiled beef, and slow-cooked beef alla picchiapò—comforting flavors perfected for eating on the go." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Under normal circumstances, if you wanted to eat tripe, tongue, braised meat, or simmered artichokes in Rome you would have to head to a trattoria or restaurant for a full-on meal, devoting precious time and money. But at Box #15 in the Mercato di Testaccio, Mordi e Vai offers Rome's offal, meat, and vegetable classics in fast food form. For around €3.00, get a ciabatta filled with the Roman dish of your choice. I never miss the panino con l'allesso (tender brisket)." - chris stang
"Located in the new Testaccio market, this vendor embodies the ingenuity of 19th-century slaughterhouse workers and their families by offering offal-based dishes reimagined as inexpensive, street-food sandwiches." - Vox Creative
"A sandwich stall (Box 15) run by a former butcher serving buns filled with meats and offal—essentially sandwich versions of classic Roman secondi; the standout is the #1 allesso di bollito, a tender brisket served (recommended) with bitter cicoria and a touch of chile." - Katie Parla
"A standout sandwich stall inside the local market famous for perfectly filled panini featuring traditional Roman fillings such as allesso di bollito (simmered brisket) with bitter greens, trippa alla romana, or coratella; a must-try for market eats." - Natalie Kennedy
