🇮🇹 Naples

Stanley Tucci visits this legendary, no-frills Neapolitan pizzeria — one of the oldest and most famous in the world — to try the definitive Neapolitan pizza margherita. The episode treats it as the gold standard of pizza in Naples, with its simple, perfect combination of San Marzano tomatoes, fior di latte, and basil.

Tucci visits what is widely considered the world's first pizzeria, open since 1738, to explore the deep historical roots of Neapolitan pizza. The visit frames pizza not just as food but as a living piece of Neapolitan identity and history.

Tucci stops at this beloved Neapolitan street-food institution for a fried pizza — a crispy, deep-fried dough stuffed with ricotta, cicoli (pork cracklings), and pepper. The episode highlights fried pizza as the true original street food of the Neapolitan poor, predating baked pizza.

Tucci dines at this elegant Michelin-starred rooftop restaurant inside the Romeo Hotel, where chef Salvatore Bianco serves a refined, modern take on Neapolitan cuisine. The show features the iconic spaghetti alle vongole and a creative interpretation of classic Neapolitan flavors with high-end technique.

Tucci visits this famous Neapolitan pastry shop in the Rione Sanità neighborhood to try the fiocco di neve — a soft, cloud-like pastry filled with ricotta and cream that has become a cult item among locals. The shop represents Naples' rich tradition of street-level pastry culture.
