They Say You Are What You Eat<br />
WE MUST BE<br />
PIZZAS THEN<br />
Craving for a slice of margherita or a much sophisticated slice peppered with caramelised onions<br />
and spinach? We take you through some of the world's best pizza parlours — offering choices<br />
for both the simple and classy dining experience.<br />
There's something about food that just transcends differences and connects us all together. Because have you heard of<br />
anyone complaining or refusing food, especially if it tastes good? More so, when that food happens to be pizzas —<br />
a usually circular-shaped dough massaged to perfection, drizzled with toppings of meat, vegetables and cheese, baked<br />
in an oven to a puffy goodness. And even if you have certain dietary requirements or restrictions, there's a pizza for just<br />
about every type of person in this world.<br />
So, if you're reading this on an empty stomach, you know what you're going to eat today.<br />

WORLD'S BEST PIZZA<br />
We're kicking off the list with a bang by starting with an outlet<br />
that names itself as the "World's Best Pizza." Located in Pico<br />
Rivera, California, USA, this outlet's tagline is: "Pizzas are like<br />
ideas, they are made to be tossed around. Come and enjoy<br />
the delicious authentic flavours of a true quality pizza." Not<br />
too shabby for an outlet with a four-star rating on a<br />
crowdsourced review website, Yelp. The pizzeria also<br />
states all pizza dough are fresh and baked to order while<br />
savoury pizza sauce and premium types of pizza cheese<br />
is what makes the pizzas here more than just a regular<br />
college meal.<br />
PIZZA PILGRIMS<br />
Two British foodies went on a road<br />
trip to Italy learning and absorbing<br />
everything that said pizza and the<br />
rest, as they say, is history. Today,<br />
Pizza Pilgrims has five outlets<br />
around London, England.<br />
Using ingredients sourced<br />
from in and around Naples,<br />
Italy, the outlets are known for<br />
making traditional Neapolitan<br />
pizzas although the owners<br />
claim they still find it<br />
impossible to beat a proper<br />
Neapolitan Margherita. Pizza<br />
Pilgrim's pride is in its<br />
ingredients. This includes using<br />
top quality Italian plum tomatoes —<br />
a brand called Strianese. They have thin<br />
skins, which mean they soak up all the sun to<br />
produce a really sweet tomato that’s full of flavour.<br />
The pizza sauce is simply tomatoes crushed with a pinch of salt<br />
— simple and delicious while buffalo mozzarella on the pizza is<br />
quite an experience. It has a higher fat content than cow's milk<br />
mozzarella which gives a much richer flavour but makes for a<br />
much 'messier' pizza!<br />
