Baldazzi belongs to an roman endangered species: the neighborhood trattoria - pizzeria, where one can eat hearty roman dishes, paying lira age prices. I went here for the first time 50 years ago, when Cecchignola was still surrounded by green meadows and herds of sheep: during these 50 years everything changed in this corner of Rome (usually for the worse) except this restaurant. The cuisine is typical roman with a great matriciana, pizza is large and thin, suppli` are home made and not industrial, frozen stuff as is the case almost everywhere in the center. There are also several fixed price menus. Customers are Romans from the neighborhood and military personnel working and living in the Citta` militare. The place is clean and roomy, family run with roman and courteous personnel. The prices are very low, 50 per cent less or more respect to the (mostly bad) places in the center, ruined by the avalanche of foreign tourists and deserted by the roman citizens. Last time we paid 33 € for a dish of antipasti, a mushroom pizza, fettuccine alla boscaiola, one suppli, one tiramisu, one beer and a mineral water. Baldazzi can be reached from the end station of B line subway, Laurentina, taking one of the many buses which through via Laurentina go to the Citta` militare (the Cecchignola) with a 5 minutes ride. Rest day in monday.
