VIP Very Italian Pizza, Italian pizzeria in Brighton and Hove, United Kingdom.
VIP Very Italian Pizza is a pizzeria in Brighton that makes Neapolitan-style pizzas following recipes from southern Italy. The dough is shaped by hand and baked in a wood-fired oven.
Neapolitan pizza traces back to 18th-century Naples, where bakers began topping flat dough with tomatoes. Over time, this way of making pizza spread far beyond Italy.
The place brings Naples pizza traditions to Brighton's dining scene and shows how Italian food culture takes root in British cities. Visitors experience how this style of cooking has become part of the local food landscape.
The restaurant sits in central Brighton and is open for both eating in and taking away. Visiting at lunch or in the early evening tends to be quieter than during peak dinner hours.
The Neapolitan pizza style is governed by a set of rules drawn up by an Italian association that formally protects the name. Even the size of the base and the thickness of the crust are defined in those rules.
