We are going to Naples. To check on a few pizzeria's
Cause I heard that the best pizzeria in the world lives in Naples.
Guys I don't know if you remember that part from the Italian episode from the mozzarella making series.
When I was in the car something just slipped out of Benito's mouth.
He said and I quote: "The best pizzeria in the world is not in Naples."
What?!
It's in Caiazzo.
Well... Never heard of Caiazzo before, so I'm gonna get there.
What's up guys. Salut.
Today I'm looking... I mean today we are looking because I'm with Victor. Salut Victor!
We are looking for the best pizza
Not in Caserta...
Not in Italy...
But in the world.
So the name of the pizzeria is called Pepe in Grani and it's owned by a guy called...
Sorry I'm just out of breath
(sigh) Breath
And it's owned by a guy named Franco Pepe.
It's supposed to be the best pizza you know in the world.
The most creative pizza in the world.
You get the point.
So nice to meet somebody who is just willing to guide us.
The guy has nothing to do with the pizzeria.
He was just walking by.
And telling us where the best pizza joint in the world is.
(Screams)
Victory!
Yeah! We are probably the luckiest in the world.
Oh lala!
Can you actually believe we were walking down the street...
Talking about pizza and we stumble upon...
The guy himself. Franco Pepe.
So we got one hour before we can enjoy those beautiful pizza,
Because the guy is just not availible until (?). Whatever.
So I thought we could just take the opportunity
And just share a few reasons with you about why this place is supossed to be...
... the most amazing pizzeria in the world.
First reason why:
It's not exactly a reason. It's more likely to be a consequence.
But still 4.5 1296 reviews
The second amazing fact: The family of the owner, Franco Pepe,
has been baking in Campanga, so this region, for three generations.
So the guy was trying using the authentic way...
You know very traditional Neapolitan pizza.
He mastered it and now the guy is completely free.
He has no limits. Is super creative.
I mean that's excactly what I love!
My man!
To be honest I'm a bit nervous,
Cause I don't know what to expect from a guy who is very creative, just a bit wild.
You know what I mean.
But I think it's for the best.
Yeah!
I can't believe this is happening.
Everything is from Caiazzo
Okay I'm gonna set you guys right here.
So that you can enjoy the whole experience.
My Italian level is getting better and better. Especially when it comes to food.
That's always the field of expertise where I get better faster.
(Wine bottle pop and pour)
Woah!
It is so light.
It feel like, you know, biting into a cloud.
The dough is just mindblowing.
Funny thing is that...
So the funny thing is that it's an appetizer, but I get the feeling...
of a desert.
You know that round, luscious,
sexy feeling.
To me it doesn't look like a Pizza Margherita
mmmh... Not even close
Why...
does he do this?
(?) Yes it is probably tasty (?)
And why not?
Three things about this pizza.
It is the lightest pizza I have ever had.
It is the most crazy pizza I've ever seen.
And third it is the best Margherita I have ever tasted.
Do I need to say more? I don't need to say more.
I need to take one more. That's what I need to do.
We already had two. It doesn't seem to be slowing down.
And we have cheese of cream.
tomatoes and basil (?)
Two temperatures in this pizza. Hot and cold.
You get only a little blob of red,
and yet it blast with tomatoe
This is just like nothing you ever tasted before.
There is something that can't be described.
Uhm what?! Hmm...
Okay!
This is the third pizza.
Is this a pizza?
I love anchovies so much.
I'm already full.
Uhm.
What?!
Hmm.
Okay.
(Flashback voice over) I love capers. I love anchovies so much
This is the guy feeding me
Woaah!
I feel like I just came out of a roller coaster.
You know when you're feeling very happy but still a bit dizzy.
That's exactly how I feel right now.
So it's been two days since I ate at Pepe in Grani.
The experience was so intense.
That I needed some time off.
Just to process everything.
So in Napoli I've been eating many pizza's. So many pizza's. Too many pizza's.
... Not too many pizza
Plenty pizza.
Some of them very traditional.
Some of them are quite innovative.
But in fact nothing is quite like what Franco Pepe does.
All the way o the point that it is almost disturbing.
Can you still call this pizza?
What is pizza?
Why is pizza?
Where is pizza?
How is pizza?
Well at the end the answer to all those questions is...
Probably very personal. And that's why I can't be the only judge right here.
So I'm basically asking you the question
Is this the best pizzeria in the world?
