Pizza party

Hello,

Singaporeans have an insatiable appetite for pizzas, as evinced by the number of pizzerias that opened in Singapore in the past few years. The latest one is Italian import L’antica Pizzeria Da Michele, one of the world’s oldest pizzerias which was founded  by Italian chef Michele Condurroa in 1870. While this humble pizzeria has become a global powerhouse boasting outposts in 19 countries (including the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, Saudi Arabia and now Singapore), it has preserved its heritage by only serving Neapolitan-style pizzas.

Before the launch in Singapore, Tatler Dining spoke with Marcello Marzotta, co-owner and director of L’antica Pizzeria Da Michele Singapore, on why he decided to bring the legendary pizzeria to Singapore, their secrets to success, and what can pizza lovers expect from the first Southeast Asian outpost along Club Street.
