Just like in Naples, we use authentic ingredients and processes to create our Neapolitan pizzas. OUR TOMATOES are imported from Campania, and we hand-mill them before the oven caramelizes them to perfection. OUR FIOR-DI-LATTE is 100% Canadian cow’s milk mozzarella. Invented in Naples, this cheese is rich and creamy. OUR BASIL is hand-torn and is the Italian herb topping on many of our dishes. OUR FLOUR is highly refined and low-gluten, making for easy digestion and endless enjoyment. ‘00’ Flour produces an amazingly soft yet crispy pizza crust. OUR PIZZAS are hand-tossed by our expert team of Pizzaiolos – pizza-makers trained by Famoso’s certified founders – then fired in an authentic bell-shaped oven imported from Italy for 90 seconds at 900ºF.
