[Tenjin Lunch] Authentic Italian flavor! Exquisite pizza with crispy and chewy crust

Hello. I'm Mai Ito, an FBS announcer.

This time, we will introduce a restaurant that we previously visited on "Mentai Wide"'s "Oh! Like! Live Broadcast."

*This information is based mainly on the time of broadcast. For the latest information, please check the store's website or social media.

Pizzeria da Gaetano Daimyo Branch (Daimyo, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City) on the first floor of Fukuoka Daimyo Garden City, with its open terrace

Fukuoka Daimyo Garden City will fully open in June 2023.

The Pizzeria da Gaetano Daimyo branch that we will introduce this time is located on the first floor facing the lawn plaza.

Pizzeria Da Gaetano was opened in Fukuoka by Japanese owner Shitama Tomohide, who trained at the famous pizza restaurant Da Gaetano in Naples, Italy, and is the only person in the world allowed to inherit the restaurant's name.

It is so popular that there are often long lines, making it a pizza restaurant that truly represents Fukuoka. There are currently three stores in operation: Yakuin, Hakata, and here in Daimyo.

The interior of the Daimyo store is spacious! The windows are large, creating a very open atmosphere.

With greenery visible beyond the window, the space feels like an oasis in the city.

The only authentic Neapolitan pizza in the world that bears the name "Gaetano"

The pizza is baked in the shop's special wood-fired oven. Among the many menu items, the one we highly recommend is the "Pizza Gaetano" (2,508 yen), named after the shop.

Pizza topped with tomato, smoked mozzarella cheese, arugula, and ham.

The refreshing acidity and juiciness of fresh tomatoes, combined with the richness of cheese and savory flavor of ham, create a delicious juicy treat!

And best of all, the fragrant aroma from the wood-fired oven and the crispy exterior and chewy texture of the dough are the best.

They are particular about the way they cook it so that it tastes just like the authentic Naples one.

On weekdays, there is also a "lunch set" that includes pizza or pasta with salad, appetizer, and drink. *This may not be available during the New Year holidays.

In addition to the wide variety of pizzas, there are also a la carte dishes such as the "Blatina Cheese Caprese Topped with Prosciutto" (4,972 yen) and "Gaetano-style Marinated Seafood Platter" (1,980 yen).

The classic "Tiramisu" (880 yen),

There are so many varieties that it's hard to decide what to get, including "Torta della Mamma Yayoi (Mamma's Whimsical Cake)" (880 yen)!

Among them, my personal recommendation is the "Cheesecake" (900 yen).

It has a smooth and creamy texture, and the milky sweetness and richness of the cheese is amazing. Even if you're full from the pizza, this is a dish you'll want to keep for another meal.

This wide variety of desserts can also be served on a large platter and shared among friends, making it perfect for a girls' night out!

In a spacious and open space, you can fully enjoy the atmosphere and flavors of Naples, Italy! You can enjoy a very satisfying lunch or dinner. (Text by Mai Ito)
