Neapolitan pizza context

A living craft, not only a famous recipe

UNESCO recognizes the art of the Neapolitan pizzaiuolo as an intangible cultural practice transmitted through workshops, families and the community of Naples.

This quest uses an original story to explore the city where that living craft developed. Playable languages: English, Italian.
