Random World's Best Cities for Pizza (17 items)

• 

  (#11) Berlin

  • Germany
• 

  (#3) Naples

  • Campania, Italy

  The Neopolitan pizza. It's the pizza that inspired most other pizzas and the city of Naples takes it's pizza recipe seriously (seriously enough to have an organization that verifies the authenticity of any product using the name). Wheat dough, buffalo mozzarella, San Marzano tomatoes, and basil combine to make a personal plate of food elation for those lucky enough to order the city's signature dish.

  (#2) Chicago

  • Chicago metropolitan area, Illinois, USA

  You know all about Chicago style pizza: it's deep dish, the crust is thick, it sometimes comes in a square, and it is gooey and delicious. The thing that sets Chicago's pizza apart from the rest is the chunky tomato sauce, the heaps of mozzarella, and the chewy, delicious crust. Typical toppings range from meats like sausage and pepperoni to veggies like mushrooms and tomatoes. Typical reaction when finishing a pie is the unbuttoning of the pants.

  (#9) Osaka

  • Osaka Prefecture, Japan

  Japanese pizza is unlike anything you've ever seen. Also referred to as a "Japanese omelette" and a "Japanese pancake", the base of the "pizza" is made with flour, eggs, water, and cabbage and topped with anything you want which, in Osaka and Hiroshima includes fish, cheese, meat, and a variety of vegetables those in the West would probably never considering topping their pies with. But hold on, the Japanese pizza is not yet complete. After the base and toppings have been cooked on both sides, the creation is drizzled with a sweet brown sauce, mayonnaise, and seaweed flakes. Nom?

  (#13) Zaragoza

  • Province of Zaragoza, Spain
• 

  (#4) Rome

  • Lazio, Italy

  Pizza is available on every corner in Rome, and not just in restaurants and traditional eateries. On many corners, especially in the tourist-heavy areas, you can grab a slice from a street vendor whose cart is piled high with pie. The crust on these slices (served al taglio, or "by the slice") is thin and the toppings are far more exotic than standard American fare (think eggplant, zucchini, and asparagus).
