According to history, thin crust pizzas aren’t really a product of Italy; they came from Punjab, India and was brought by immigrants to the Roman Empire, although this is yet to be verified. In Italy, pizza is known as the food for the lower class people of 18th century, flat and unleavened bread topped with tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and basil leaves. While modern-day pizza lovers dig the New York-style per-slice goodness of Lombardi’s or the deep-dish sinfulness of Chicaco-style pizzas, nothing beats the magic of thin-crust pizzas. In the Philippines, there are only a few shops that captured the authentic thin-crust style. One of them is in Marikina: Café Lidia.
