It all started off when Giuseppe Mascoli took over former pizza restaurant named Franco’s in Brixton. Franco Manca, which means ‘Frank’s Missing’ in Italian, is a restaurant that dedicates itself to making authentic Neapolitan pizza, abiding by a strict cooking style in order to make sure pizzas are cooked to perfection. Ingredients are fresh, sourced from all around Europe to ensure nothing but the best produce is used on the pizzas; the sourdough is carefully kneaded and left to rise for 20 hours; and finally, pizzas are cooked in a wood burning brick oven for just 40 seconds. The carefully crafted menu consists of six pizzas which are prepared and cooked in front of you, and an extensive wine list.
