Panino con Trippa
The tripe sandwich is praised for its generous sauce that remains solid, not liquid, with a hint of mint. The only minor critique is a bit more pecorino cheese would be welcome. Overall, it's considered very good.
Panino con Crudo e Crema di Fichi
The sandwich with cured ham and fig cream is interesting but the ham is very sweet and gets lost; the creator suggests cooked ham would be better for saltiness. The zucchini cooking is perfect, al dente.
Panino con Melanzane alla Parmigiana
The parmigiana-style eggplant sandwich is appreciated for its decisive flavor, with mozzarella and oregano. The creator notes it's a Roman version, not the classic Campanian one (eggplants are not breaded). They would have preferred less oregano and fresh basil.
