"From Nicky’s Coal Fired to Redheaded Stranger, Mijo Gordito has been making the rounds all around town with rustic, homestyle cooking ripped straight from abuela’s kitchen. Pozole verde studded with pork belly, tamales stuffed with puerco verde (slow-cooked pork with salsa verde), and chicken made with mole poblano get loads of attention and care: the pork butt is brined for eight hours, the chicken is seasoned with over 39 spices and herbs, and the pozole marries tomatillos, poblanos, jalapeños, cilantro, and onion for hours on end. Orders can be placed via Instagram DM but pick-up locations vary. Keep an eye on their IG for more information." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones

1200 Villa Pl

Building · Edgehill

To recreate an authentic pizzeria as one would find in Naples, we imported all the right elements, beginning with the special domed brick oven. Here the pizzas are cooked on the masonry floor, alongside burning wood. Fueled by Tennessee oak, the oven's blaze approaches 900 degrees, quickly cooking the pizza to its bubbly, leopard-spotted best. Neapolitan style also requires San Marzano tomatoes, extra-virgin olive oil, fresh mozzarella and "00" Caputo flour. Milled as fine as talcum powder, Caputo is considered the premier pizza flour and the key to soft, pliable dough. If you want to experience Italy without the 9 hours flight, and uncomfortable narrow seat in coach, come by Bella Napoli, and let your mind and palate take the journey of a lifetime!
