Food & Wine - 2 Dicembre 2019 Maritozzo: Rome’s Only Native-Son Sweet Gets Its Own Celebration Maritozzo Day will be celebrated on December 7. The press conference to present the third edition of Maritozzo Day, founded by Gabriele Lupo and Silvia Pontarelli of the food-blog Tavole Romane, was held on November 26th at the Art Hotel, Via Margutta 56, the artists’ street just off Piazza di Spagna. This location was chosen because it was the first hotel to serve maritozzi at breakfast.
