An Epic NYC Pizza Tour with Maurizio Leo. Plus, Anthony Falco’s Italian Pizza Adventures.
Description
Matt was so excited to invite his friend Maurizio Leo to New York City to walk the streets and eat a lot of pizza. Maurizio is the author of The Perfect Loaf, an incredible cookbook and online community dedicated to all things sourdough. Matt and Maurizio visited seven pizzerias and, along with lead producer Clayton Gumbert, tasted their way through the city’s best (and maybe not best) slices. So what did they think of Joe’s, L’industrie, Mama’s TOO!, Lucia, Upside, Scarr’s, and F&F? Tune in!
Also on the episode, Matt catches up with Anthony Falco. Falco is a global pizza consultant and a true pioneer in the pizza world. He just returned from a three-week trip to Italy, and we talk about all the pizza styles and trends he spotted there. We also move beyond pizza to discuss the modern trattoria scene, good and great gelato, and how Anthony’s appreciation for art dovetails with his interest in the culinary world.
