Questo banchetto si trova a Roma nel quartiere popolare di Centocelle. Sta li da almeno cinquant'anni e ricordo quando da ragazzo mi ci fermavo a comprare i mostaccioli. Nel periodo di Natale vendeva dei torroni, durissimi!, a base di miele e nocciole o mandorle che andavano rotti con il martello... masticarli era impossibile e i pezzi li si doveva lasciar sciogliere piano piano in bocca. E le noccioline tostate caldissime... la liquirizia a bastoncini o a rotelle... lo zucchero filato, le mele caramellate... che ricordi!

And you Peppe, you see every now and then in fairs and in the market but they are not like those of many years ago. That's changed, too. Thank you for the ride.

That's a good story. reading the title I thought was an original gimmick to sell, instead it is just a legend in its field :-)
Besautiful black and white!

Thanks for the Manuel pass. Yes, in Centocelle, the popular district on the Roman outskirts where I shot (and lived for many years) is a real institution.

An ancient Roman tradition now reduced to very few shopkeepers. There were still several of them when I was a boy (I was born in 1973, let's say that until the early 90s they were still there), now I see them only in street food events or in very rare places.

Good morning Claudio and thank you for commenting on this photo. The bank is still active, although it has been run by foreigners for some time now. The quality is still the same as when I was a boy.
