The one to order

Pane e panelle with crocchè: chickpea fritters and potato croquettes in a sesame roll, with lemon

The line to expect: A short wait at lunch; cash only. Closed Sundays.

A Kalsa fry shop run by the same family since 1943; TasteAtlas ranks its panelle first in the world, and it costs a couple of euros.
