Roman pizza has a new throne in Los Angeles. Just three weeks ago, Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy, the Prince of Venice, opened his first Italian restaurant in Westwood Village, serving pizza al taglio, homemade pasta and Italian deserts in a fast casual setting.
The grandson of Italy’s last king did not dream of becoming a restaurateur as a child, but he’s proven to be quite good at it. “I grew up wanting to eat well,” he said, explaining his approach. “So, I try to choose the best chefs there are for pasta and for pizza. They’re all Italian.”
