Background
About NAP (Neapolitan Authentic Pizza)
The Story
NAP, which stands for Neapolitan Authentic Pizza, is a pizza spot in El Born, the part of La Ribera that sits inside Barcelona's old-town Ciutat Vella district. It's a casual sit-down place with outdoor seating, and it also handles takeout and delivery.
The Cuisine
The focus is Neapolitan-style pizza: a thin, soft base with a puffed, charred cornicione (the raised outer rim) that comes from a very hot oven and a short bake. The result is a pizza you fold or eat with a knife and fork rather than a crisp, cracker-thin one. Wine, beer, coffee and dessert round out the menu.
The Team
The kitchen is built around the Neapolitan pizza format, leaning on dough and a hot oven rather than a long list of dishes. Vegetarian options are available alongside the standard lineup.
