Pizza made long way and highlighted the gourmet history. It was born in the poor neighborhoods of Naples and passed the ocean to settle in everyone’s heart and stomach. Though considered purely Italian, the truth is that the modern pizza industry was born in the United States. Today we have Domino’s and take and bake pizzerias and here is a short selection of the finest pizza places in America.

Advice how to recognize the good pizza:

• look for a wood-fired or coal-fired oven with a burning fire;
• the ingredients should be cooked just enough for the flavors to combine, but not so much that they lose their form or taste;
• the pizza should be crispy, chewy and soft;
• there shouldn’t smell like grease, it’s not real pizza if it’s greasy;
