BEST PIZZA in ITALY! NAPLES Pizza vs. ROME Pizza!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 сен 2018
- When in Italy, the food item I wanted to eat the most was of course pizza! But just like New York and Chicago, there is a great pizza rivalry as well between Rome and Naples, Roman pizza vs Neapolitan pizza. One uses olive oil on the crust one has a pizza police.
So I decided to try out both for myself by dining in Rome Italy and then traveling down to Naples.
Here's where I went:
1. Florida Pizza bit.ly/2NvW8sa
2. Di Matteo bit.ly/2DnXKj5
3. Sorbillo bit.ly/2Dq9OAo
4. Dal Presidente bit.ly/2NzZKcw
5. La Pratolina bit.ly/2O2fULh

@@barrygregory913 Rick Steves travel channel is great.
Hey man where you live i bet there is something we cant get anywhere else whether its bbq, good beef, fresh eggs etc…we all have something to offer!
Man I had original Italian pizza once, and my life was never the same again...
Mike you are showing enjoyment of food porn. 39 years since I was in Italy.
Yeah, it's kind of regrettable eating fresh Italian pizza because the Pizza back in the States will never taste the same.
PoundFor PoundKing same here in Germany, but luckily I only need to drive for 4 to 5 hours to go to Italy.
Asia
But...but dominos.
That “ancient square” is actually where Julius Caesar was assassinated. I went to Rome last summer and was standing around that wondering what the hell it was, googled it and was very surprised to find out it’s the location of one of the most famous assassinations of all time!
Et tu, Brute
I just love his enthusiasm for food. It genuinely makes him so happy which gives me as a viewer a feel good factor too.
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
When you can't afford to travel watch Mikey
I'm pretty close to Italy,only Croatia is between us I hope I visit it one day :(
i drink milk 5 glasses of milk before watching, so I'm not hungry
I had the same idea :)
wendy wadford I feel you
🤣
Eating pizza in Italy seems like a rite of passage.
Bucketlist fo sho.
It is
the only one worth writing off
As well as authentic pasta
:ladynikkie-- if you tried the pizza you would be too stuffed all the time for pasta trust me
casually eat a box of pizza in street
best scene ever
A bit of English "pizza" culture on the mix
I envy your stomach's capacity.
This, and his metabolism. There's a good all you can eat japanese restaurant near me with a 3 hour limit... I'm always super full after about 2 hours while I want to try more and I have to keep it lean for a week afterwards to keep my weight somewhat under control.
I genuinely trained myself to eat all of my favorite stuff
All Asians have big stomachs, but what I envy is his fast metabolism, which most Asians don’t have.
He workout a lot, with lots of cardio
It’s called bulimia
Who else loves Italian food? 🙋🏽♀️ I had an opportunity to go to Italy two years ago and I can’t wait to go back. Italians don’t realize how lucky they are. Love everything about them. What a lovely country!
Hello Leonaza I Love Italian Foods 😋😋
I go there every year because i have relatives in Sicily. And yes, lot of stuff thats awesome there
I've always wanted to go to Italy ❤ Such a beautiful country with delicious food 😍 I hope I can make it 😁
..."Italians don’t realize how lucky they are" si, fino a quando non ti ci tocca vivererci e cominci a bestemmiare per quanto il governo faccia pena, le tasse ti uccidano e quanto siano tutti dei gran ladroni... massi' in fondo è un bel posto in cui vivere (e qui potrei citare non so quante canzoni partendo dal grandissimo Rino Gaetano)
One of my dream countries I want to go to
That is the difference between original pizza and what lots of us call pizza today.
Original pizza was as much about the base pastry as it was about what was on top.
Where as today, lots of us look as the base as nothing more than a medium to hold all the toppings.
True
It is like that around the world. The French invented Puff Pastry and the early dishes made out of puff pastry, the pastry was supposed to be the star, but now the pastry is just a medium for what it contains or comes with. The same as the Greeks and filo pastry even though it was invented in Turkey .
We take a lot for granted these days, and are not as impressed anymore.
I can relate, even to traditional and semi traditional dishes from where I come from (South east Asia). They're over focusing on toppings.
Actually pizza was starvation food, you made a flat piece of bread and threw whatever you had left over on there.
I would happily eat the base on its own. I only have cheese on my pizza and no sauce. I used to work at Pizza Hut here in New Zealand and at the close of business the boss let us make a pizza with the leftovers and I always took home a base with nothing on it.
I'm glad they have English subtitles now on the pizza menu. I had pizza in Naples 30 years ago and a group of us didn't know any Italian language. All we could do is point to an item on the menu and got surprised with the result. Surprised at all the vegetables such as peas, potatoes, arctic chokes, and more on the pizza. A big change from American pizza.
I think Italy just became my favorite country in Europe(it has always been one of my fav countries though)

@@Angelchildxx good joke nonna is proud
You make a vegetarian mouth watery from non veg dishes you are one incredible person sir.
Thank you! Greatest compliment :-)
bro you should try bbq
So true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quit being vegetarian bro, life’s too short, you’re missing out, trust me
Harshit Kawatra Same here!!! 😁😁😁
Mikey: "You can't cut and fold Neapolitan pizza like they do in New York"

*Lady cuts and folds pizza right behind Mikey*
Most of the people here in Italy eats with hands, I've never eaten with fork and knife because I literally don't know how should I eat with them and can't enjoy the pizza
@@owo7094
Oh okay thanks, that's good to know 😉
Armann Gill s
owo ....You pick up the fork in one hand, and the knife in the other. Then you cut the pizza. Then you eat it. Its literally not that hard and the pizza tastes exactly the same.
I guess he is disguising his preferences. I feel like this guy can be a little dishonest.
There was an Italian pizzeria and restaurant here in Philly (owned by Italians) that made a pizza with pistachio pesto, was literally my favorite food. Went out of business during COVID sadly, but Mike isn’t kidding, its probably the best tasting thing any lover of savory things will ever eat, especially when combined with mozzarella and parm
You can make pistachio pesto at home in 15 minutes. Use a mortar and pestle
Funny someone in America has had this experience there, but probably the best pizza I've ever eaten in my entire life is pizza con "crema di pistacchio" in Siracusa Sicily, my province. The pistachios were probably from Bronte in Catania Sicily, the best in all of Italy. To be honest though, it was girlfriend's pizza!!!
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
"i'm just checking wether it's legal to marry a pizza". i couldn't stop laughing. i love food too, but you just take it to a whole new level. LOL
My favorite quote: “the most delicious form of patriotism”
There’s just something about tomato sauce, cheese and herbs on crust. It’s magical!
@@0mnicide 😣
I just recently came back from studying abroad in Italy, this video made me miss it there already. Best pizza I ever had in Rome (and my whole stay there) was at Bonci near the Vatican!
I can't afford to travel, but I love watching travel shows. I'm also a cook, so I love cooking shows. So watching you eat in different countries is a lot of fun!
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
I have once again made the mistake of watching this video at 1.25am, now I am starving... great....
im hugry too :-(
I can say from my personal experience that none of this is exaggerated or anything. I went to rome and the pizza is so good that I had a hard time eating when I got home.
are you still in iyaly? try one of those cheap 10-15€ all you can eat chinese+sushi buffet places, those are so common here in italy, i go there to eat at least 2-3 times monthly
I've been to Italy 4 times and the people there are nice and the food is amazing especially Pizza
When Mike said they told him they were sold out, I could just imagine him standing outside with that cute puppy dog face & a sad violin playing the the back, just looking through the glass or something 😭😭🤣🤣 awww they must’ve felt so bad hahahah
Why am i watching this during quarantine. This is torture :(
As a tour guide I hope you can visit Italy asap!
I have been to Naples and to DiMatteo. You are right. There is nothing like a Margharita pizza in Naples. It is the absolutely the best!!!!!!!!!!
Mikey living the dream of all pizza lovers😭❤️
Best pizza in italy--->not even 1 mln views
Best pizza in NY--->2,5 mln views
Come on guys, really!?
Lorenzo D'Addesa of course, because it’s easily accessible.
Italians hate foreigners thats why
Lorenzo D'Addesa more people ho to ny than Italy 🤷♀️
@@ethanchen2891 like your president
Alt Narrative that’s not true. Read the stats.
I just had an amazing idea. Mike, you should write a book! "The Foodlover's Bucketlist by Mike Chen" I would buy that!
I Love Pizza 🍕🍕🍕🍕 I Love Italian foods very much! 😋😋😋😋
This guy's literally living the dream while i cry in my bedroom
He has no eyelashes tho
maybe you're living his dream, you never know
@@satyamjha_2I highly doubt Mike chef's dream is to cry in his room.
You traditionally cut the napoletan pizza in 4 pieces, you take the quarter, fold it, and if it drools fold the tip on the inside.
Anyway great video as always man, you can feel the connection between you and the food through these.
So kind of similar to how you eat New York Pizza?
Hands down, Italian pizza is the best not just because it's so delicious but also because if you've been to Italy and eaten pizza there, you'll realise that it's not heavy. Eating a whole pizza isn't a problem
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
Watching this while hungry is a torture!! 😂 Gotta love Mikey's description..."I'm just checking whether it's legal to mqrry a pizza"!! You never fail to crack me up! 😁😅
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
Man, I love the way you just attacked that pizza, standing in the alley, folding it up like a calzone. I love your enthusiasm!
Great eating, man!
That final pizza... one look at it, and it was just so obvious that it was beyond anything else.
1:53 that “ancient square” is where Cesare got assassinated by Bruto 🤣 not just a random square
Ceasar? Or Cesare Borgia? I thought he was flung off a wall in Spain
Giulio Cesare
@@mat2941 Thanks for clearing that up
Bruto Mars?
Cool! Thanks for that tidbit! 😊
Should've titled it "Mikey Chen ASMR pizza eating" :)
Mike, amazing video as usual. Because of you I learn about all the great foods you've shown and where/what to get, and this video especially did the job right. Keep it up my guy!
Thanks Ben!
Somehow Mike continually comes up with novel, incredibly expressive ways to describe his food experience.
Pizza in Italy made me appreciate a really good base, medium thin, with just 2 or 3 high quality ingredients. Fromaggi or Gorgonzola, prosciutto and basil is my fave. Perfect.
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
Hi Mikey! Love your videos, just a couple of things from someone who has lived in italy: The first pizza you had in Rome looks like that not necessarily because Roman pizza is more casual. That kind of pizza is called "pizza al taglio" or sliced pizza. It has a thicker, focaccia like dough because it's meant to hold up as it's eaten on the go. You can find it all over Italy. Also, Italians not being restrictive with their toppings is not something characteristic only of pizza Romana. You'd be surprised what kind of toppings we have on our pizzas! Personally my favorite has potatoes, heavy cream and bacon. Much love
Thanks Mikey. I went to Italy in may this year. I still can't get over how beautiful it is and how good the food was. Thanks for these videos. Love you.
First time I've ever seen that in an alley. Mikey you crack me up !
10:05 “... you can’t cut and fold”. Mike, take this from an Italian living in Italy: not only you can fold that pizza, but that’s actually the right way to eat it. Also, pizza “purists” in Naples, despise pizza from Rome because it’s too crunchy and you can’t fold it (it would broke). They say that’s how you know if it’s a “real” pizza: if it’s real, it will fold.
That crunch gave me shivers in a good way.
I'm so jealous Mike you get to eat pizza in Naples oh dear God it looks amazing
This brings back memories! I visited Italy last year and had the best pizza in Naples at Pizzeria Brandi. It's supposedly where the Pizza Margherita was invented in 1889 for Queen Margherita. Sadly, it seems you didn't visit it this time around. That only makes for another trip! Also, you should visit Amalfi, they have the best fried anchovies & lemon gelato! It definitely won't disappoint!
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
Watching this video as a tribute to what Italy is going through. Thank them for pizza and hope everyone stays safe.
This man can’t be human. He is a machine. I lost count after pizza number 7… where the heck does he fit this all? 🤷🏻♀️ Unbelievable! But it is enjoyable watching his journey
difference between authentic pizza and modern day pizza was the dough. Find like a lot of dough nowadays lack
Sean Marchello i’m from Napoli (Naples) and it’s the water that Makes the diffrence
Max Step why the water? Its not the brick oven?
It's the heat of the oven and that it's wood-fired. I think so. Most soft mushy doughs are made by people who don't know you need to heat the crap out of dough to make pizza.
That's an epic showdown Rome and Pizza (I love to see that) 😍😍😍 🍕🍕🍕
no napoli vs roma. napoli always wins
Aww sorry about that, I was so distracted with the pizza that I mistook the title as Rome vs Pizza 😅
Naples is the city of pìzza not Rome

Sending this to all my friends who didn't believe me when I told them I tried tuna pizza when I went to Italy.
Tuna pizza is actually a big deal here in Italy! Actually tuna + onion. Delicious! 👌🏻
I feel like Americans are way more snobbish about pizza than Italians
@@juch3 They're not snobbish, they're just uncultured lol
Tuna, red onion, and cherry tomatoes is my wifes favourite, but tonight I made tuna, prawn and spinach, it was delicious
You are my hero walking through Naples eating a pizza that is f****** folded in half, enjoying the scenery. a god that I hoped maybe one day be close to eating that kind of food
actually he just made a "pizza a portafoglio" (wallet pizza), a kind of pizza popular in Naples
I’m pregnant and this sets off so many cravings 😩 these look amazing!
Bwahaha! I can't BELIEVE you walked the streets of Naples with all that stuff hanging out of your bag- living dangerously, Mikey! On a serious note, you made me cry with all the amazing memories of Italy 3 years ago. I fell very hard in love with the country, and the food!
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
You have the BESTTTT description for your foods hahaha, mix with humor, I love it sooooo much.
I am going to Napoli this year in October, and looking forward to it very much, especially the pizza. A friend of mine stated the pizzas in Napoli are for to die for, and watching this video, I agree. Thank you sir for your time to make this video, regards from the UK
You dont have to eat it with fork and knive, cut it in pieces use your fingers to fold a V, that keeps it straight while you eat it. So you can always experience the right amount of dough, tomato, mozzarella, oil and basil
You cannot eat pizza napoletana with your hands, the dough is so thin
@@owlstrixvaria7386 we eat neapolitan pizza with hands.
Souce: my life.
@@4l45t0r then its not really neapolitan. True fact
@@owlstrixvaria7386 well, I'm 100% italian, born raised and living in Italy (20 years of my life passed near Naples) and I can assure you we eat it with hands.
You can see at 12:08
@@4l45t0r Who do you think am I? Im italian as well, my ex bf was from naples so i've been there too.. im pretty sure you been eating box pizza( the One you order from the kebabbaro sotto casa, of you know what i mean) and I pretty sure that naples pizza cant be eaten with 1 hand, you Need at least a help to carry the middle part into tour mouth with the fork or idk with the other hand duh
Hi Mike! So glad to see you do a series in Italy. The places you visited were so beautiful. And the food looked delicious. But then real Italian food always does lol! From your reaction you definitely fell in love with it.
Food aside what was your favorite historical or tourist site?
I love these Italian videos. The best! Bravo, Mikey 👄 🥘 🍕
I am going to Naples AND Rome next months. I know very little about Italy but I LOVE the food. I am a foodie, and now I am scanning RUclips for videos about the food in Naples and Rome, and VOILA... here is one. I never say your channel, but here I am. Lovely!!!!
Napoli pizza is the best, going back to Italy this year, such a amazing country.
Did you end up going?
I miss the pizza and beer in Italy! This made me want to go back someday
Nutty & Creamy
Oh the Pizza with the Pistachio Pesto in Rome looks awesome too, I'm drooling 🤤
Watching you eat those pizzas made my mouth water. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
I've been eagerly awaiting this moment!
My current favorite food vlogger...by far
I’ve always wanted to travel to Italy. This makes me want to go even more!
Thank you for making this Mikey
Been waiting for someone to make this kind of Italian pizza vlog for long and you've done it in the best way.
It's 1 am here, I'm hungry and searching a trip plan to Italy 😅😅
I hope this means more Vlogs from Italy!!! Im going in January. I cant wait for the Pizza!
I've followed this channel since it was created as well as his vlogs and stuff in his other channels, and I just came to the realization that I'm watching my dude eating pizza in Italy for 1.6m subscribers.
thanks for being there from the beginning :-)
Right from the Chen dynasty. 😍
Always watch you when hungry!!
Nothing beats pizza in Italy!!!!
Lovely vlog too!!!!!
Mikey your videos are awesome! Keep up the good work.
Ah the sacred word PIZZA now I want pizza!
Damn, I wish I heard about that last place when I was vacationing in Rome back in 2013. That pistachio-pesto pizza sounds absolutely divine. Maybe next time I travel there I'll check it out. I'd definitely love to go back to Italy in general.... it's my favorite European country thus far. The landscapes, the culture, the artwork/museums,... and yes, the food! I remember having a good share of authentic Italian pizza along with gelato on several occasions there and it was so damn tasty!
thank you for appreciating my beloved pizza🇮🇹🍕
I really love your food personifications man. Made me want watch everything you're in.
Best pizza video I've ever seen - BRILLIANT!!!
Pray for Italy😔😔, you can win the Corona war. Love from India❤️

Thanks for changing my life by seeing you experience all my bucket checklist.:) Hope I can be with you in one of your foodie trips. Love the Singapore food trip. ❤️❤️❤️
The last pizza looks and feels so good, too bad i'm unable to be there and try it for myself
The feeling you got. Mikey? With the pistachio pesto pizza??? I felt it. I definitely felt it...❤
I’m late but I am LOVING this channel!
Love your work. You are the best bro.
Laughing so hard over you eating that pizza in the alley! Awesome!
You looked like you were tearing up a few times. Have you ever cried over a beautiful dish?
Im drooling af. Pizza heaven 😍
I cannot believe this was 3 years ago, I was watching this mans video for so long that I did not notice how much he changed until I browse a video from few years.
Can't wait till we can travel again ...I'm drooling for Italian pizza.
Come to Vancouver again when the borders are open.
Love your channel. 💘 😻
Oh god I’m drooling
Why did I watch this to suffer.
Neapolitan style pizza is the best, its so simple but so perfect. Cut and fold!
Mickey, amazing vlog, it started to make me hungry right now at 5 a.m.
Mikey NEVER STOPS!
Getting homesick. Rome is like one of my favourite cities ! I miss it so much :'c
When will you go to Spain for a Paella in Valencia :D
soon :-)
A Milano a mangiare il risotto allo zafferano, oppure la cotoletta alla Milanese, oppure un piatto strong la casoela,un piatto invernale con cotenne , piedini ,salsicce di maiale con pomodori e verze ghiacciate da leccarsi i baffi.
@@pitrantoniobaratti7988 hai ragione, sarebbe molto più interessante vedere gli stranieri provare piatti regionali che vadano al di là delle solite pizze e 4 paste, ma è una pia illusione.
I am glad you ordered unique pizza at La Pratolina, I can feel the love shooting from your eyes😂....I have never seen pizza like that and you are describing it so poetry, thank you
ive watched this 4 times and i still watch it all the way through all 4 times
Ya I was waiting for another video
A must go in my list.. fr sure going there to try.. I love pizza..and after hearing it from you.. Surely have to go..
Last time I ate pizza in Italy was 3 years ago, and finally in 3 weeks imma travel there, a dream coming true fr
