Those seeking authentic Neapolitan pizza can now find it in this new restaurant.

Known as one of the world's oldest pizzerias, L’antica Pizzeria Da Michele has opened its first-ever Southeast Asia restaurant here in Singapore.

According to the restaurant, key ingredients are imported directly from southern Italy to retain authenticity.

It offers the brand's famed pizza a ruota di carro, or wagon wheel pizza, which has a thin 15-inch base that's served draping over the plate.
