Guidekin's take

Trastevere street food with the history attached: a Jewish style artichoke or a courgette flower with a glass of wine, supplì, a Roman pizza specialty and gelato, in a small group or a premium tier capped at eight.

Tastings, a wine and a beer are included at €45 per person, pickup is not. Reduced rates for under eighteens, and it runs in rain.

In our comparison: #169 of 197 in Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
