Proposal

This is a proposal to add a new category to the tag "cuisine=<nowiki/>*" to map those fast food (amenity=fast_food) known as " Pizza al taglio" for which there is currently no correct value.

Rationale

In Italy you often find shops, usually small but sometimes quite large, that sell rectangular or squared pieces of pizza usually by weight, sometimes by piece. Then, they wrap the piece[s] in some sheets of paper so you dont mess your hands with sauce and topping. Just pay and walk away with your street food. According to Wikipedia this is common in some areas of the world, as in NYC there seems to be over 1,000 fast foods and/or restaurants selling " Pizza by the slice" (which, BTW, is almost the same thing as "Pizza al taglio") and there should be a way to tag those shops.

Examples

A shop like the Italian bakery depicted below:

An Italian bakery selling "Pizza al taglio"

coud then be tagged with amenity=fast_food and cuisine=sliced_pizza to enhance the fact that it sells "Pizza al taglio"...

...or "Pizza by the slice", as you like: it could be a little different...

Pizza by the slice

...only if sliced from a round pizza.
