Unlock, a gourmet pizza restaurant located in Hackney, East London, has launched an innovative dish called Luna, which it claims to be the world’s first pizza taco. This unique creation fuses two popular street foods: the traditional Neapolitan pizza fritta, or fried pizza, and the Mexican taco. The Luna offers a bold and tasty twist on beloved comfort foods.
The dish is shaped like a half-moon, reimagining the classic pizza fritta with a variety of both traditional and experimental gourmet toppings. It combines the crispy dough and rich flavors of authentic Neapolitan pizza with the portable form of a taco. This offers a one-of-a-kind culinary experience for street food enthusiasts in London.
Giovanni Izzo, the founder of Unlock, stated, “Luna is more than just a new dish—it’s a revolution in street food. We’ve taken the essence of traditional Neapolitan flavors and blended them with gourmet ingredients to create something entirely new. We believe it will expand the boundaries of flavor while providing a comforting food experience.”
The name Luna, which means moon in Italian, reflects the dish’s distinctive half-moon shape. The concept highlights a fresh and creative take on street food, honoring both Italian traditions and global culinary innovation.
