Punekars have welcomed Naples style pizza for obvious reasons over the last 2-3 years. But Bibwewadi and surrounding areas were still missing out on this variety of Pizza until now! The reason we are stressing so much on the Naples style pizzas is specifically for the fantastic crust it offers and it being way healthier than its fast-food counterparts!
Coming to the point, we found the first commercial kitchen in Bibwewadi & surroundings, baking the authentic Naples style pizzas. This new takeaway and delivery kitchen named Toss Pizzeria has been dishing out very light, full of flavour and healthier pizzas for past couple of months.
The pizzeria is run by young trained chefs and is located right opposite Relax Corner (yumm pavbhaji!) inside an out-house. Through the glass facade you can watch your pizza or garlic bread being made (feel free to tell them to add extra cheese on your pizza here!).
The Naples region of Italy makes pizzas in a particular way that makes them very light on the stomach, high on flavour and a distinctive character that makes them healthier than the pizzas available regularly. 72 hours are given to the dough to rise naturally, dough is stretched by hands and ingredients used are fresh but minimal. The outer crust of Naples style pizzas is usually thicker and is charred a bit in the brick oven that makes this crust not just tasty but a bit smoky. You must be able to see larger air bubbles in this part and that adds to the whole character of this pizza! Let us warn you, this is an eating habit you’d get used and addicted to!
Coming to the menu, it’s short enough for you to not get confused and diverse enough to maintain the authenticity. The classic Margherita is packed with basic flavours that come from fresh tomatoes, basil and confit garlic, while 3 Cheese comes loaded with mozzarella, parmesan and ricotta cheese. Then there are variations in the sauce (they have one in creamy parmesan white sauce too!), and toppings like mushrooms and piri piri paneer. Non-vegetarians have got equal options here with the classic pepperoni, meat loader, chicken sausages and more to choose from!
The toppings are not too over-powering while allowing the sauce and the crust to make its flavours punch. All pizzas are finished with a drizzle of garlic olive oil making sure that none of the slices go dry even if you eat after a couple of hours.
We absolutely have loved the Naples style pizzas at pizzerias across Pune, but Toss stands out for its own take and making this variety available in this part of town. Cheers to Toss Pizzeria for doing that. Bibwewadi thanks you!
