Tasting Menu at Che Tipo — Roman pizza by the slice gets the main-course treatment at this vision of contemporary Italian cuisine on Elmegade

Che Tipo is something more than a pizzeria. It’s a relaxed spot where flavorful antipasti lead to one destination: a Roman-style slice of your choosing, prepared with the same care as the vino naturale behind the bar. Here, creamy stracciatella, dry-aged beef tartare, and red fish carpaccio serve as a prelude to pizza that feels more like a fully realized dish than just a slice.

Opened in June, this Italian yet unmistakably Copenhagen concept comes from chef-owner Davide Grossi and pizzaiolo Francesco Lancioni. The lifelong friends hail from the same village on the Tuscan coast, but their contemporary Roman-style pizza has a worldly edge. Here, classic and playful flavors—mortadella with fresh cheese and toasted pistachios, Parma ham alongside juicy figs, and heirloom tomato caprese—sit atop blistered dough, making pizza by the slice the worthy centerpiece of a coursed affair.
