True to the Italian philosophy of letting simple ingredients sing, this pizza is inspired by ‘Spaghetti alla Nerano’, a dish that celebrates courgettes by pairing them with provolone cheese and basil.

This pizza is in honour of the screen legend Stanley Tucci, Spaghetti alla Nerano being his favourite dish, claiming it to be ‘life changing’, ‘unbelievable’ and ‘one of the best things I’ve ever eaten’.
Our fried courgette and mint pesto is topped with mozzarella, thinly sliced courgettes and then finished with mortadella and provolone once out of the oven.

The Nerano Sorrento is perfectly paired with a Limoncello & Elderflower Spritz, it’s summer in a glass. Salute!

We will be hosting two very special Margherita Sbagliata pizza and dough making masterclasses in our Brighton kitchen, on the 20th and 21st May. Tickets are £40 and are limited to 12 people per session, during which you will:

– learn about our dough production process
– make dough; ball dough for proofing
– open your own pizza bases
– top your pizza
– cook your pizza
– eat your pizza!

This session will focus on our current special, the Margherita Sbagliata. We had the chance to visit Franco Pepe in Caiazzo and we were deeply inspired, to the point that we wanted to dedicate a pizza to him and his territory. We’re happy to say that Franco gave us the opportunity, with our ingredients, to recreate his Margherita Sbagliata. For this special partnership we collectively decided to raise money for the amazing La Scugnizzeria.

All money taken for these masterclasses will go directly to La Scugnizzeria. Founded in 2017 by Rosario Esposito La Rossa the programme offers underprivileged young people from his local area of Scampia, Naples access to environments where they can learn skills for future employment.

The events will be held in our Central Production Kitchen, 3-4 Circus Parade, BN1 4GW. 7pm start to finish around 9pm.

Tickets for Monday 20th May
Tickets for Tuesday 21st May

This pizza is a fusion of Northern and Southern Italy; with buffalo ricotta from the south, bresaola and balsamic from the north.

Bresaola is a beautifully deep red cured beef, served thinly sliced. Originating in Lombardy and popular in the region since at least the 15th century, farmers still use the fresh alpine air to help preserve the beef. It is linked to the ancient tradition, common throughout the Alps, of preserving meat by salting and drying. Bresaola is often served as a starter with rocket, Parmesan, lemon and balsamic – the flavours we have chosen for our special pizza.

The base of buffalo ricotta is delicate, perfectly carrying the strong flavours of the toppings. Ricotta translates to ‘re-cooked’ in Italian, the milk being cooked twice – firstly so the curds and whey separate, and again to create a creamy ricotta cheese. We finish our pizza with a glaze made from the much-loved, centuries-old ingredient of balsamic vinegar, reduced until it sings with a bright, tangy and caramelised flavour.

We’ve paired this month’s pizza with our Splendido Spritz. Combining London dry gin, Martini Bianco vermouth, raspberry syrup and lemon juice. We finish the drink with a top of Spumante for a fresh and fruity aperitif special. ’Splendido’ means ‘beautiful and bright’ in Italian, it’s a perfect spritz for spring. Salute!
