Description

Join the Pizza Pilgrims on a fun and thrilling ride through the city of Naples.

Famed the world over as the birthplace of pizza, Naples is an extraordinary city that revolves around food. Thom and James Elliot are adopted sons of Naples, with a little black book of chefs, suppliers, restaurateurs and people who have become close friends and colleagues over the past decade of the Pizza Pilgrims restaurants. In 2023 they built the worlds smallest mobile pizzeria a Vespa with a pizza oven on the back much to the Neapolitans delight and bemusement, and over the past two years they have travelled around the city with photographer Dave Brown, capturing the very best that Naples has to offer.

Including Neapolitan classics and personalised recipes from the Pizza legends of Naples, as well as expert tips for making your own authentic Neapolitan pizza, Pizza Napoli is a riotous, glorious explosion of a book infused with ready wit. With unprecedented access to previously undocumented places, and to the stories of the remarkable people, Pizza Napoli is more than just a cookbook it lifts the lid on a city that is rising up to claim its rightful place as one of the true gastronomic centres of the world.
