Mercatino di Piazza delle Coppelle

During our month in Rome John and I became regulars once more at our local tiny one-family daily market in the hidden-away Piazza delle Coppelle. They specialize in flowers, salad greens and fresh fruit as well as their own eggs and olive oil.

You can even get local, soft buffalo-milk mozzarella cheese and rough country bread. Perfect for a toasted tomato and mozzarella sandwich. Believe me.

A couple days a week a fish stand of local catch is added to the selection. Shopping at the mercatino is a great way to start your day.
