MIO – A Piece of Neapel (Donauzentrum)
MIO's Naples-born pizzaiolo Antonio Arino was crowned European pizza-making champion at the European Pizza Excellence Germany competition in Hamburg on 12 March 2024 — a named professional's technique validated by a dedicated pizza competition rather than by a general restaurant ranking. The Donauzentrum branch has served 'authentic Neapolitan pizza' from a shopping-centre foodcourt location since November 2022, and was known to regulars as a specialist's kitchen before the title made it a headline.
