This week, That Guy From Italy spent two days at the Pizza Expo in Columbus exploring whatโs next in the world of pizza, and returned with plenty of inspiration for next season!
We tasted our way through new trends and familiar classics. We saw tortellini and mini meatballs on pizza, sampled all kinds of dessert pizzas, and even watched robots adding toppings to pizzas. Yes, these things are happening in the pizza world, and itโs fun to see where the industry is headed!
But one of our biggest takeaways had nothing to do with food. It was about community, connection, and learning from others who share our passion. We even had the chance to swing by The Italian Festival of Columbus ๐ฎ๐น to try their world famous Festival Pizza (very different from what we do - but thatโs the fun of trying different things!)
For Chef Pino, Italian food has always been about tradition, craftsmanship, hospitality, and bringing people together. We left Columbus with fresh ideas, renewed inspiration, and an even greater appreciation for the craft we love.
Because even with decades of experience, thereโs always something new to discover and always room to evolve a craft thatโs been around for centuries.
Hereโs to honoring tradition while staying curious about whatโs next! ๐โค๏ธ
