There are very few places in the world that have become internationally synonymous with their most popular food. But when you think of Italy, you immediately think of Pizza!
Authentic Italian pizza is inherently simple, and nothing like the numerous commercial versions found around the world. The traditional pizza from Naples is light, thin, easy to digest, and bubbling with freshness. Subtle nuances in flavour are brought about through keenly sourced ingredients like pure flour, ‘fior di latte’ or fresh mozzarella, olive oil and vine ripened tomatoes. Traditionally made in a wood-fired brick oven, these simple ingredients are artfully crafted by a skilled Italian chef, into magic that you can savour!
Ciro Cattaneo, is our very own Culinary Maestro. He was instrumental in bringing authentic Italian gastronomy to Chennai, over twenty two years ago. Ciro grew up in a family of restaurateurs in Roma, Italy. He took to learning traditional Italian cooking from his ‘Nonna’ and ‘Madre’, from a very young age. He perfected the art of making pizzas and learnt that the difference between a good pizza and a great one, lay in its foundation – the pizza base!
Ciro spent years developing his own secret pizza dough recipe that is kneaded, folded and shaped, by hand, into two classic Italian pizza styles – the Romana and Napoletana. The Romana Pizza has a traditional thin crispy crust with toppings that nearly cover the entire base. The thin crust makes the pizza light, fresh and a healthy yet delicious option. The Napoletana pizza on the other hand has a fluffy, soft and thin crust with a thick crispy edge, for those who love to indulge.
