The 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific area considers Asia, Japan and Oceania as one zone.  Management for this region was entrusted to Vittoria Dell’Anna. Together with 4 local coordinators, she created a team of 150 inspectors that allowed a more thorough supervision and inspection of this geographic area.

The award ceremony and all collateral events were organised by Virgilio – Creating Value, and they were under the patronage of the Embassy of Italy in Thailand.

Lorenzo Galanti, Ambassador of Italy to Thailand, expresses his satisfaction with the event: ‘’There are many ways to prepare a great pizza, but there are two requisites for a pizza to be authentic: Italian ingredients and Italian know-how in the preparation. 50TopPizza is the acclaimed guide to the Best Pizzerias in the world. I am delighted to participate in the 2022 Asia Pacific award edition, which is a testimony to the growing popularity of this simple, yet amazing and captivating Italian dish in this part of the world. Beware of imitations! “

“This is the first year when we have grouped this zone under a single “umbrella” for the Asia Pacific region,” explain curators Barbara Guerra, Albert Sapere and Luciano Pignataro. “The decision to do so was a very important one. The Asia-Pacific zone has a plethora of businesses connected to the world of pizza that deserve recognition. This is why we decided to concentrate our energy on this region that continues to amaze us every year.  We are happy that the ranking is very balanced and evenly distributed over the various countries. The pizza there is excellent, even when made thousands of kilometers from Italy. This is a wonderful fact that we are happy to reconfirm year after year.”
