Queen Margherita

নামের মধ্যে রয়েল। খ্যাতি রয়েল।

The family behind Bayside’s new pizza restaurant Queen Margherita have serious pizza pedigree. Ubaldo Di Pietrantonio opened the famous Pinocchio’s Pizza restaurant in South Yarra in 1971. A true leader, Ubaldo was the first pizza restaurateur to use a conveyer oven in the early 1980s and Pinocchio’s remained a fast favourite with locals and celebrities alike for over 40 years.

Learning the royal ropes from a young age Marco Di Pietrantonio picked up where his father’s empire left off, bringing with him his own ideas and a signature pizza he would become famous for – The Ocram (spell Marco backwards, add hot salami and olives and you got it!). With a love of fine Italian food, quality produce and the perfect pizza, Marco’s new venture Queen Margherita is aptly named.

Over the past five years Marco has been working on a new pizza dough recipe using the finest quality flour from a celebrated mill in South Australia. Combine this with the latest stone bake pizza oven technology from Italy, where the pizza is cooked at a lower temperature for longer and you have pizza fit for a Queen and her court!
