๐๐จ THE UNWRITTEN RULE: Why you should NEVER share a Pizza in Naples! ๐ฎ๐น๐ซ
I need to save you from an awkward moment before you even sit down at a restaurant in Naples! ๐✋
Imagine this scenario... ๐ญ✨ You arrive in the city, hungry and excited ๐. You find a famous pizzeria, smell the wood-fired oven ๐ฅ, and sit down with your partner or your group of friends. The waiter arrives with his pen ready ๐️๐จ๐ณ. You smile and say:
๐ฃ️ "We will just order two pizzas to share for the table, please."
Suddenly, the waiter stops smiling... ๐๐ถ He looks confused. He might even look a little bit offended ๐คจ. The atmosphere changes. You wonder... what did I do wrong? ๐ฑ
๐ฎ♂️๐ You just committed the "Pizza Crime"! ⚖️
Let me explain the huge cultural difference so you don't make the Waiter cry! ๐ญ๐
๐บ๐ธ๐ฌ๐ง In the USA or UK ๐ง๐ญ Pizza is often a heavy, thick, crispy pie loaded with pepperoni and cheese. It sits in your stomach for hours ๐งฑ. It is designed to be sliced ๐ช and shared because eating a whole one is almost impossible for a normal human! ๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐ฆ
๐ฎ๐น๐ In Naples ๐๐จ Here, Pizza is not just food; it is a religion ๐. It is soft, incredibly light ☁️, and has a very high hydration dough that cooks in just 90 seconds ๐ฅ. It is designed to be a "Personal Experience" ✨. It is easily digestible and meant to be eaten by ONE person ☝️.
๐ซ๐ฝ️ Why sharing is a bad idea here ๐ ♂️ When you ask to share a pizza in Naples, you are essentially telling the Pizzaiolo: "I don't think I can handle your art" ๐จ or "I am on a diet." ๐ฅ Plus, by the time you cut it and pass slices around, it gets cold! ❄️ A Neapolitan pizza must be eaten hot, straight from the oven to your soul ❤️๐ฅ.
๐ช๐ The Challenge ๐คค Don't be afraid! I promise you can eat a whole Margherita by yourself and you won't feel heavy afterwards ๐. You will actually feel amazing!
๐ CONFESS BELOW! ๐ Did you try to share a pizza when you visited? ๐ค Did the waiter give you "The Look"? ๐⚡ Or did you surprise yourself and finish the whole thing (and maybe order a Babร for dessert)? ๐ฐ๐ฅ
