D'Angelo Mi chiamo Giuseppe A. D'Angelo, e la mia passione è la pizza napoletana. Sapete, quella che "come la fanno a Napoli non la fanno da nessuna parte”. Questa affermazione poteva essere vera forse fino al decennio scorso. Ma negli ultimi anni la pizza napoletana si è affermata nel resto d’Italia e del mondo. La Campania resta però il suo centro nevralgico. Ed infatti il viaggio alla scoperta della pizza è anche un viaggio alla scoperta della Campania, terra ancora poco conosciuta al di là delle sue coste, ma che sa regalare emozioni indescrivibili. Lo sapevate ad esempio che a Capua abbiamo il secondo anfiteatro più grande dell’antica Roma dopo il Colosseo? O che a Salerno vi è un orto botanico attivo dal Medioevo e in uso dalla scuola medica più antica d’Europa? Pizzerie situate in borghi poco conosciuti, a pochi passi da attrazioni storiche importanti o anche solo posizionate in scenari di imponente bellezza.
