Thank you, about 140 miles from me.  I might have taken the road trip.  Probably not a booming location for NP pizza!

Thanks.  I am not far from Cullman, but I did not know he had closed. 

I don't do Facebook.

I also just realized the link I posted did NOT have the address anyway.

i mean WHAT an awesome post ... it is simply an outstanding work, so well written, so heavenly documented and detailed.
i am really lost for words - no one will ever understand the care and love we all try to give life to our pizzas.

if there is something like a PHD graduation work on PIZZA - this is it and will always be.

OMID u are a true master and inspiration - i really adore this thread. THANKS !!!

This is really true and worth noting from time to time. To me this is probably the most significant thread on the forum.  Omid is a true Renaissance Man.

I went there Spring 2018. Omid had already left the venture by that point. Nice guys, though...they even brought me behind the counter to make a pizza!

It’s  unfortunate that they closed. From living in the South for 20+ years, I can tell you Southerners generally don’t like true Neapolitan pizza. Most “Neapolitan” places in Nashville are baking pies in cold ovens (5-6 min bake).

Kudos to those guys for staying pure. Their pizzas were 100% DOP

For those of you in the Toronto area we have a few pizzerias that are Certified Verace
I was invited to a Master Class by Breville at one of them.
I commented on the experience here

It was a treat to sample the real deal from their take-out and to compare with my efforts.

Anyone know what happened to the oven at Strada di Napoli?

[mitcity22]

Hey Everyone, My wife was lucky enough to visit Bruno's in San Diego and she asked if they knew how Omid was doing. The staff said he lives north of San Diego and is working as a lawyer. He still stops in but has been very busy with work. Pizza was of course awesome.

A brilliant and insiteful read.
I live in the small town of Serino about fourty miniutes from Naples. While I realise all Italians say they have the best pizzas ie Naples., a testiment to my local Pizzeria is that Neapolitan travel to Serino to have a Ciello Pizza from pizzeria da Ciello.
According to the locals its all about the quality of our water which comes from the mountains in the area. Actuall we also supply water to Naples.
May the passion for pizza never fade, while I have only lived here for the last five years, I'm now able to discern  a quality pizza from the mediocre
Thanks again for such an insiteful article.

Do they? After talking with many Italians, I was under the impression that the big majority of Italians outside of Naples actually prefer styles other than Neapolitan (al piato, al taglio, tonda romana, etc.). Almost every region or area in Italy has its own style, making Neapolitan pizza more of a niche style associated with Naples and the Campania region
