We’re right in the middle of award season, and we just gotten word of another Metro Vancouver spot winning a pretty prestigious title.
The Port Moody-based Pizzeria Spacca Napoli has just been honoured as Canada’s top pizzeria, ranking among the top 1% of pizzerias worldwide.
This title was awarded by Gambero Rosso, a content platform known as the global authority on Italian food, wine, and travel.
Not only was Pizzeria Spacca Napoli named Canada’s top pizzeria, but it also received a corresponding “3 Spicchi” ranking, making history as the only Canadian pizzeria to ever earn this prestigious ranking.
“We are beyond honoured to receive this recognition,” said Vita Di Giovanni, general manager of Pizzeria Spacca Napoli. “This award is a testament to our team’s dedication and passion for authentic Neapolitan pizza-making, and we’re thrilled to celebrate with our supportive community.”
According to a press release, Spacca Nopoli’s success is due to its “adherence to traditional Neapolitan techniques” and its use of quality imported ingredients like 00 farina, San Marzano tomatoes, and Fior di Latte cheese.
“Led by head chef Stefano Speranza, the pizzaioli are skilled artisans who bring years of experience from Italian pizzerias. From dough fermentation to hand-stretching and baking at 900 degrees in a wood-fired oven, Spacca Napoli’s team delivers an authentic taste of Italy in every bite — something the restaurant’s very loyal following knows a lot about,” continued the press release.
