In Search of the Best Pizza in the World - Pepe in Grani

There is no pizza like Franco Pepe's. Nowadays everywhere is accessible, but the best pizza in the world still gets you on the road to explore the old, narrow, cobbled alleys of Caiazzo. For food travellers, it's always worth the effort.

Scooping 7 Michelin Stars: Niko Romito Embraces Vegetables

It's been over three years since I last visited Reale, a celebrated restaurant situated in the remote town of Castel di Sangro nestled in the mountains of Abruzzo in central Italy. It is not a tourist town and takes about 1.5 hours driving from Naples. It is interesting that a world-famous three-starred Michelin restaurant is housed in a time-honoured 16th century monastery.

A Jewel in the Sand: Three-starred Restaurant Uliassi

It might be a bit of a cliché, but the story started when a boy fell in love with a girl.

When I went to catering school, it was a great party for me, because eighty percent were girls."

Magnolia: Where Food Rivals Its Enchanting View

I remembered I used to buy dried magnolia blossoms when I was stunned by the sight of sumptuous magnolia trees along the streets of Milan this summer.

Sitting atop a town hill in Emilia-Romagna, Magnolia, a Michelin two-starred establishment, offers gorgeous views of the gentle slopes extending all the way to the horizon and even the landlocked republic of San Marino in the distance. The region is famous for its balsamico vinegar and parmigiano reggiano cheese.
