Trapizzino is essentially a pizza pocket sandwich and is a popular Roman street food. Trapizzino the restaurant opened up recently on the LES, and the trapizzini are filled with classic Roman-grandmother-home-cooking recipes. Trapizzino also offers suppli (fried rice balls). In a nutshell, this place sounded carbolicious so I had to try it pronto.
Rice balls (suppli): texture was good -- crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. The flavors of the day were classic and oxtail. I liked the classic more; the cheese was perfectly melted and stringy. The flavor of the oxtail one was decent, but there was barely any oxtail.
Trappizini: bread was light and fluffy and actually quite delicious, but the bread to filling ratio was too high. We tried the eggplant parmigiana and chicken cacciatora, both of which tasted good, but there was not enough filling for the amount of bread.
