The Antica Pizzeria Da Michele arrives in Singapore on April 15, at 8 Club Street, at the base of the brand new Mercure ICON Singapore City Centre hotel, with its 53rd location.
"Just less than a week after our last opening in Italy, in Caserta, we add a new location, the first in Southeast Asia, reaching Singapore - explains Alessandro Condurro, CEO of Antica Pizzeria Da Michele in the world. - And the 'welcome' was not long in coming here either, so much so that the magazine 'Tatler Dining' wrote 'Although Singapore boasts some of the biggest names in international pizzerias, none come close, when it comes to preserving the historic legacy of Neapolitan pizza, to L'antica Pizzeria Da Michele'".
"The opening in Singapore, one of the world's most important financial centers, is yet another challenge we face with great enthusiasm - continues Francesco De Luca, CEO of Antica Pizzeria Da Michele in the world - We are proud to say that it will be the first pizzeria in Singapore to serve the wagon wheel pizza, with its thin dough that spreads out and allows the dough disc to hang over the plate, and with our ingredients, all from Campania: Caputo flour, Fior d'Agerola fior di latte, Fratelli Masturzo oil, and Solea tomatoes".
"As an Italian, I have always had a great love for pizza and, when I decided to bring an authentic 'pizza experience' to Singapore, there was only one possible choice: L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele, founded in 1870" concludes Marcello Mazzotta, partner in Singapore.
The pizzeria features a design that combines a contemporary style with traditional objects and photos of the Condurro family, with the inscription 'the Sacred Temple of pizza, est. 1870 Naples - Singapore' welcoming customers. Inside, about 70 seats and an oven with green tiles and the inscription 'Da Michele Singapore'.
The menu, very varied, starts with the pizzas from the mother house, margherita, marinara, and cosacca, enriched by other typical traditions, and adds southern specialties, fried foods, pasta, salads, desserts, and many varieties of drinks and beverages, to meet the tastes of the city.
