With this latest addition the Italian restaurant chain is offering a total of four different choices of dough including the Regular (Thin and Crispy), the Gluten Free, the Whole Wheat and finally the Neapolitan.

This latest addition is true to its origins and it represents a pizza which is wood fired oven baked, traditionally soft and with a slightly thicker edge.

The Neapolitan pizza Margherita was first served to the Queen Margherita of Savoy in 1889, the Margherita pizza, whose red tomatoes, green basil, and white cheese represent the Italian flag, was named after her and it is a traditional choice in Naples, Italy.

800PIZZA baking happens exclusively in wood fired stone ovens imported from Italy as there is no substitute to the smoky aroma of burning wood, says Alessandro, the founder, gas ovens and electric ovens work at much lower temperature with no aroma and require much longer time to bake the pizza which in turn dries the product...

800PIZZA is committed to the use of Caputo flour, Certified Buffalo Mozzarella from Caserta and Certified S.Marzano tomatoes, the choice of raw material is what makes or brake the product, says Alessandro

800PIZZA currently also offers three choices of cheese: Regular, Fior di latte and Buffalo Mozzarella in addition to two choices of tomato sauce: Regular and San Marzano, "we have all options for all taste and all pockets", says Mr. D'Ubaldo.

The company has recently signed up with FrancorpME to develop a comprehensive franchising plan in parallel to a very aggressive local expansion which is witnessing 800PIZZA opening two more branches this year 2013 in Dubai alone brining to seven the total number of outlets.

800PIZZA is a subsidiary of Belhasa Hospitality, operating under the umbrella of the Belhasa Group of companies, Mr. Alessandro joined forces with Belhasa in 2011 and since then the company has witnessed a particularly strong and successful growth.
