Pizza is a traditional Italian dish. It’s popular not only in Italy but around the world. Naples, a city in southern Italy, is believed to be the birthday of pizza. It’s weel-known for the most delicious pizza anywhere. The first pizzeria was built in Naples in 1830 at Port’Alba. The ancestor of the modern pizza is the simple flat bread. It’s the food of the poor. The truly modern pizza we eat today starts with the Margherita pizza. In 1889, Queen Margherita went on a trip to Naples. She heard about pizza and asked to try it. Don Raffaele Esposito, the most famous pizza maker, was asked to prepare it. He prepared two traditional and one new type of pizza, but the Queen liked the new one topped with tomatoes, Mozzarella cheese and fresh basil the best. She thought that the colours of this pizza represented the colours of the Italian flag-red, white, and green. This pizza was then called ‘Margherita’
