Where Did Pizza Originate?

To start, we need to get back to the roots of pizza and where it came from.

We all know that Streets of New York has been serving pizza in the Valley for 41 years but when and where did pizza originally really start? The answer is debatable, and one that we don’t believe will be settled anytime soon.

Some say pizzas true roots come from the Roman period and the making of focaccia bread, of which toppings were later added. Others, on the other hand, say the pizza we know today was created in Naples, Italy.
