]]> Italy is famous for pizza, but one entrepreneur noticed a hole in this otherwise very saturated market. Former pizza maker (or pizzaiolo) Massimo Bucolo noticed that there are plenty of places to get pizza in Rome, but virtually none of them work at night. “There was a hole in the market. Although Rome is an important city, there was nothing [foodwise] available through the night,” he told CNN Travel. “We never wanted to compete with a classic pizzeria.”

That’s how he came up with Mr. Go, the first pizza vending machine. Technically, what Mr. Go makes isn’t traditional pizza, as it uses piadina flatbread instead of dough. Bucolo admits that making real pizza in the vending machine would be impossible because that process requires a skilled chef and a wood-fired oven.

The first Mr. Go sits in a residential part of Rome, the capital of Italy, called Piazza Bologna. Bucolo is testing the market by putting the machine nearby a student area and a hospital, as he believes people there need nighttime food options. You can choose among four types of pizza, including a classical Margherita, Quattro formaggi with four types of cheese, spicy salami, and pancetta (basically premium bacon).

]]> Although most of the world is used to the style of pizza that originated in Naples, in Rome, most of the pizza you will find is more in the style of Sicilian pizza. This type of pizza is square and does not only use buffalo mozzarella as classical Napolian pizzas do. Nonetheless, Roman pizza does not fail to delight and surprise the taste buds. What’s even better is that pizza in Rome also offers many options for cheeseless pizza, so dairy-free people can still celebrate this wonderful dish! Whatever kind of diet you follow or flavors you generally seek out, Rome has a pizza that will perfectly fit you. 

Bianca

This is probably the weirdest looking pizza since it doesn’t look like a pizza at all! Pizza Bianca is a totally vegan pizza that is more like a flatbread. Usually, it is just topped with coarse sea salt and sometimes rosemary, it is so delicious and airy.

Rossa

This cheeseless pizza is just dough and sauce baked to perfection.

Zucchine

This pizza is normally followed with ricotta, this zucchini pizza is an interesting vegetarian option.
