Top Italian pizza chef Gino Sorbillo
on Monday hosted Amazon boss Jeff Bezos in his iconic pizzeria
in central Milan on Monday to mark Wednesday's World Pizza Day,
the Naples-born entrepreneur said, revealing a visit that had
been kept top secret for security reasons.
"To have at my table to taste a traditional Neapolitan pizza
Jeff Bezos, owner of Amazon, with is family and bodyguards, is
one of the greatest satisfactions of my life," said Sorbillo.
"I couldn't have celebrated Pizza Day any better".
The Milanese eatery in Corso Vittorio Emanuele, called Gino
Sorbillo Lievito Madre al Duomo, offers the same range of
traditional Naples pizza as Sorbillo's historic mother pizzeria
in his home town, in Naples' Via Tribunali.
"Bezos ate a margherita with buffalo mozzarella with burrata
added while the others had various choices including quattro
formaggi, potato and sausage, and ham and mushrooms, washed down
with a fine Amarone.
"Bezos said he'd come back, and left a nice tip for the
waiters".
