48h Pizza e Gnocchi Bar in Melbourne took home this year’s title of the Best Pizzeria in the Asia-Pacific area.
The 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific ranking 2022 was announced in a live awards ceremony held for the first time in Asia at the Peninsula Bangkok Hotel, Thailand.
“This is the first year when we have grouped this zone under a single ‘umbrella’ for the Asia Pacific region,” says Event 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.
Coming in at second place is Bottega in Beijing which has also been named the best pizzeria in China.
Following closely in third place is The Pizza Bar on 38th in Tokyo. The restaurant’s Chef Daniele Cason also took home a special award for Pizza Maker of the Year.
The top 15 pizzerias on the list will go on to receive a placement in the 50 Top Pizza World 2022 ranking that will be revealed on 7 September at Palazzo Reale in Naples.
