Parma
Parma's best pizzeria is this hip hotspot in Oltretorrente started by young upstarts from Campania. It's all about authentic pizza napoletana and trendy cocktails like pink pepper negronis. Stars here include Crudaiola (aged prosciutto, artisanal fior di latte, stracciatella from Puglia, grape tomatoes, olive oil and basil), but the dough/crust is so good, you might be content to simply go with that.
Reserve ahead by phone or online.
