make the pizza like the italian flag, so he used red tomatoes, white mozzarella cheese and green basil leaves. the queen loved it and the new pizza was named “pizza margherita” in her honour. pizza went to america with the italians at the end of the nineteenth century. the first pizzeria in the united states was opened in 1905 at 53 spring street, new york city, by gennaro lombardi. but the
