Tredieci anni fa.... a trip down memory lane



Thirteen years ago, I discovered the best pizza in the world at Lanterna Verde in Lanciano, Italia. Seriously, the best. It's the dough that makes them so unique, especially among all those thin crust pizzas.

After years of reminiscing and salivating, an old friend and I went back to Lanciano last weekend and ordered the same pizzas we ate as 18 year olds living the Italian dream. Elenio -- the genius behind Lanterna Verde -- remembered our orders. Truly.

My order is mushrooms, artichokes and olives (pictured here, missing a slice) and hers was the same plus garlic. The other pizza pictured here is mushroom with truffle oil.
