Silversea brings forth an unparalleled culinary voyage, offering guests a hands-on experience in crafting some of Italy’s finest dishes. At Pepe in Grani, situated in the quaint town of Caiazzo just 45 minutes from Naples, Franco Pepe and his team meticulously hand-knead over 550 pounds of dough daily to craft 700 pizzas a day, six days a week. Known as Italy’s esteemed pizzaiolo, Pepe’s restaurant attracts visitors worldwide, who eagerly wait in line for his renowned creations. Pepe’s innovative take on pizza transforms this humble staple into a culinary masterpiece, playing with flavors and textures to create a symphony of taste.

Guests fortunate enough to secure a spot at Pepe’s intimate salon, hosted a few times a year inside Authentica, are treated to a culinary extravaganza. Pepe takes them on a journey through various pizza styles, from a light, airy deep-fried version topped with fresh tomato, anchovy, and lemon zest to his signature Margherita Sbagliata, showcasing the interplay of hot dough and molten buffalo mozzarella. Each pizza is a testament to Pepe’s skill and creativity, offering a delightful fusion of flavors.
