Fresh from being named the #63 Best Pizza Chef in the World by The Best Pizza Awards in Milano, Chef Roberta De Sario is marking the occasion with two limited time pizzas, available for one month at FALCONE and Motorino.
Born and raised in Naples, Roberta has built her career on a deep respect for the traditions of Neapolitan pizza while embracing the experiences that have shaped her along the way. Today, she leads the pizza programme across Hong Kong and Dubai, bringing the same dedication to every pizza that leaves her ovens. Climbing from #85 in last year’s rankings, this latest recognition reflects years of perseverance, hard work and an enduring love for pizza.
Created especially for the celebration, each pizza tells a chapter of Roberta’s journey. At FALCONE, Peperoncini Verdi combines fior di latte, scamorza, roasted green chilli, datterino tomatoes and basil, inspired by the connection between Milan and the elegance of Naples. At Motorino, Costiera layers fior di latte, prawns, zucchini, garlic, red onion, ‘nduja and mint, reflecting the path that took her from Hong Kong to Milan and back to Naples.
“Every pizza tells a story, and these two are especially personal to me. They reflect the places that have shaped my journey, from Naples to Hong Kong and Milan, and the people I’ve met along the way. To be recognised among the world’s best pizzaioli is an incredible honour, but what matters most is continuing to learn, grow and share that journey with every guest who sits at our tables. I hope these pizzas give people a taste of where I’ve come from and where I’m still going,” says Chef Roberta.
Peperoncini Verdi and Costiera are available in Motorino and FALCONE respectively until end of August.
