Request: recommend the best pizzerias in Tuscany

[mike]

I’m going to Italy and would like to hear recommendations on where to find the best pizza napolitana. I’ll only be in Naples briefly so I’m especially interested in great pizza napolitana in Tuscany, where I will be most of the time.

My interest (and time) will be in three areas, where I would love to hear any recommendations:

   -   Florence
   -   Tuscany, other than Florence
   -   and of course Naples.

PS. To save people having to repeat previous postings, here is the list I’ve gathered for Naples: Da Michele, Ciro a Santa Brigida, Trianon da Ciro, Lombardi a Santa Chiara, Pizzeria Brandi, Di Matteo, Sorbillo, Pizzeria Port A'lba, Pizzeria del Presidente, La Notizia.

Il Pizzaiola in Florence is credited by almost everyone with having the best pizza in the city.  It is adjacent to Cibreo about 1/4 mile from the Duomo.  On par with the best in Naples or Rome.

your not going to find neapolitan style pizza in tuscany...simply because its not popular....instead what you will find and enjoy is the pizza classica....a thin crust pizza that is 12 inches in diameter and has low borders..it also has more toppings then a neapolitan pizza

if you want a great neapolita pizza....have one in napoli
