Customers are going crazy for The new Conni’s Pizzeria in Salford
In the southern Italian city of Naples it's winding lanes and tiny streets are lined with thousands of pizzerias. It is after all the birthplace of pizza.
Usually, a special sign hanging above the door is the way to separate the wheat from the chaffe, but an indicator we're also familiar with back home is a long and winding queue. And, if there's locals willing to pitch up outside one of these establishment for hours on end, you know you're onto a winner.
A lofty ambition for sure given the city's strong pizza game. Across Greater Manchester, there's plenty of pizzerias doing Naples proud with both classic takes and riffs on tradition - from Rudy's and Honest Crust, to PizzAmmore Napoli and L'Antica Pizzeria Da Michele - but when you meet the Fumo's, you know they're the real deal.
"If you treat me good, I treat you good, that’s the rule of life. Then there’s the Neapolitan charm and of course, mamma’s food - the perfect combination. As Francesco explains, you're not meant to buy them yourself, but accept them as a gift. A large chilli has nabbed a spot on the counter of the Focacceria, while at the new site, they're dotted around the room, as the family try to ward of any chance of bad luck.
Attention turns to the pizza oven, which as Francesco proudly states, is basically the 'Bugatti of ovens', though his mum reckons it cost too much. "This pizza oven is as big as my house, I tell you what it cost £25,000, it is a very, very good oven.
