What the creator captured
Jeremy Jacobowitz highlights Tokyo-style pizza as an elite culinary category that rivals traditional Neapolitan styles through its scientific pursuit of perfection and unique use of salt and olive oil. His ultimate experience was the meticulous tasting menu at Pizza Bar on 38th, where he witnessed the artistry of Chef Daniele Cason. He considers it a massive mistake for travelers to visit Tokyo without exploring its world-class pizza scene.
