Venture to Port Moody to Pizzeria Spacca Napoli

We braved the cold last night and headed out to Port Moody,  which is a nice drive from Kits and has a ton to offer, including Pizzeria Spacca Napoli, who just won the award for best pizza in Canada! We sampled several pizza’s including a new one that the one and only Pino Posterero from  the award winning Cioppino’s. We sipped negroni’s (of course) and a divine, cheesy, crunch potatoe croquette or two kept us from starving as we waited the pizza party.
Pizzeria Spacca Napoli, a beloved local restaurant, has been honoured as Canada’s top pizzeria, ranking among the top 1% of pizzerias worldwide. This international accolade and corresponding “3 Spicchi” ranking from Gambero Rosso, the global authority on Italian food, wine, and travel, cement Spacca Napoli and Port Moody as the destination for pizza lovers far and wide.
