The event, held over two days starting from the 1st at Vera Hannam branch in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, featured four types of pizzas developed by three pizza masters, including Lea Scruto, the champion of the U.S. Pizza Competition who visited Korea to participate in the '2023 Seoul Food Festival.' These pizzas were made and served directly at the store. All 200 pizzas prepared by them were sold out, and SPC explained that sales increased by 30% compared to usual, showing high interest.
Vera and the pizza masters presented a total of four special pizzas: ‘Sweet & Spicy Salsicha Pizza,’ ‘Forest Mushroom & Fresh Cheese Pizza,’ ‘Meat & Cheese Pizza,’ and ‘Burrata Marinara Pizza.’
Lea Scruto, the leader of the Global Pizza Master team, said, “Collaborating with Vera’s excellent kitchen and oven, the best chefs, and staff was truly an enjoyable and special experience,” and added, “We are very grateful for the support of Korean customers who came to taste our pizzas.”
Vera plans to extend the sales period for the pizzas that received positive customer responses among the four introduced this time.
