A piece that needs no introduction, no explanation, and so much said in a single-word title. There’s a value of simplicity that is experienced in Italy, and with that, we find perfection. Lunch in Napoli, the acclaimed birthplace of pizza, we visited a few days after Napoli FC had won the Serie A league. The city was wrapped, from balcony to balcony, with blue and white ribbons. What a mad place. What energy. Southern Italy–raw and untrimmed, chaos filling the streets lined by 13C Renaissance and baroque architecture. Like the pizza, a beautiful mess surrounded by centuries of perfected craftsmanship. Dough that chews like marshmallows, tomatoes that taste of long days in the sun and a lunchtime atmosphere that makes you eat fast and smoke later.
