Peach Pit

Cool little pizza slice spot in the center of Como. I’m not normally a fan of thick based pizza, however, Peach Pit’s base is so soft it’s hard not to enjoy. The man behind the counter very friendly. There are a few spots along the walls to sit and eat, but, this isn’t a sit-​down kinda place (grab a slice, eat and go).

I absolutely loved this place during my visit to Pizzaland. In fact, it’s one of my most memorable places of my trip. Being the shameless pizzawhore that I am, I had pizza at least once every single day on my trip! When in Pizzaland, act like the pizza eaters!
I really didn’t expect a focaccia style pizza place called «Peach Pit» in Como, which is nowhere near Napoli, to taste so freakin’ good! When I first read «Peach Pit» (no relation to Beverly Hills 90 210) and I saw some Flintstones pics at the place, I had a flashback of the 90’s. I was a bit apprehensive but I went in anyway because… well… pizza… duh. Also, a couple of good reviews on Unilocal.
I had a bit of everything. I love Napoletana pizza: anchovies. He didn’t have any on display. He kindly said «Don’t worry, I’ll make one for you». Just like that! So I had anchovies, buffalo mozzarella, brie, 4 cheese and some other pizzas as well. Just check out some of the pics. I didn’t expect the brie to be so &%*$# delicious! Holy shit! Everything was delicious!
The guy offered us all free coffee and extra service. Just the nicest guy! He also mentioned that he was trained in Naples and that he gets most of his ingredients and all of his cheese directly from Naples! That explains the bleeding creaminess of the buffalo mozzarella!
Just check out the pics and if you’re ever in Como or close (Milan) it’s worth visiting the Peach Pit (Damn! Every time I say it I get a flashback of young Jason Priestly).

The name is weird but the pizza is actually good there. Only rectangles for 3 € not whole pizzas, but still really good

This focacceria is fabulous, the sauce is so good! It is a great little shop to hop into and grap a slice to eat there or walk around with on the go. I will definitely visit again the next time I’m in the area.
