It's cheaper than Dr. Oetker and it's even made in Italy! :) I found only now these pages (’cause you know, where you read Internet, you should spell Serendipity) and I’d like to leave my take on best pizza in Finland: after long search, I’m currently quite satisfied with Pirkka kiviuunipizza (which comes in three flavours).

At least at Il Duetto and Benjam’s Bistro the cooks are Italian and at least to me the pizza feels quite authentic, give them a chance if you have not tried them before. (In both restaurants the quality varies quite a lot) Given the regional differences it seems it is not that easy in different parts of Italy either, I have witnessed a heated debate about how pizza should be between a guy from Naples an other from Rome. :) To tell you the truth, I’m not that particular about saunas.

Italians are very particular about pizza, and my point is that you are not going to get anything that conforms to the italian standards - which incidentally are just a matter of habit and you may even not like. There are a lot of restaurants serving good food under the name of pizza, it's just that it's not what I would like to get. yeah, maybe I should have formulated my post differently.

Although I do like the normal ones better than the Casa di Mama. But on the other hand I don’t really see what’s wrong with pizza of Rivoletto, Il Duetto or Benjam’s Bistro (or maybe half dozen other places). I have not eaten at La Vista, but will try.
