If you follow any pizza pages on social media, you have probably seen pictures of the Atlanta Pizza Truck. A small, bright blue, ape truck with a fully operational pizza oven mounted on the truck bed, the little truck became internet famous in 2020. We recently called up the man behind the pizza truck, Chef Alessio Lacco, to hear about how the pizza truck was born, learn more about his journey through the American pizza world, and chat about his big plans for 2021.

CERTIFIED NEAPOLITAN PIZZAIOLO

The Associazione Vera Pizza Napoletana is an international organization officially established on June 1984 by a group of Neapolitan people representing some of the oldest families of pizza makers and the most famous Neapolitan pizzerias,  seeking to cultivate the culinary art of making Neapolitan pizza. Later on, the association was officially established by the Italian government as a denomination of control (DOC), a designation that made AVPN a legal entity able to give special designation to pizzerias who meet strict requirements that respect the tradition of the art of Neapolitan pizza making.

The mission of AVPN is to promote and protect, in Italy and worldwide, the “true Neapolitan pizza“, as typical product made in accordance with the rules and guidelines described in the International Regulations Book in force since 1984, edited and registered by AVPN.

The Association is also involved in the promotion of equipment and ingredients approved for the production of the  “true Neapolitan pizza“  and the professionalization of the Neapolitan style pizza makers.
