And their instincts were confirmed this week at the Fine Food Australia show in Sydney when he walked away with the title of the nation’s best pizza maker.”
“Mr. Brotzu fought it out with four finalists in the gourmet category of the Dairy Farmers’ Best of the Best Pizza Challenge, which is regarded as Australia’s premier pizza competition,” said the article. “Rome-born Mr Brotzu made four pizzas with cheese and small-goods toppings. Yesterday, he was back in his Rokeby Rd shop attacking his pizza making with renewed verve. He said simplicity was the key to making a good pizza.”
