Acclaimed Neapolitan pizzaiolo Vincenzo Capuano knows a thing or two about that. Having opened more than 40 restaurants globally, the world-champion chef now brings his signature Nuvola pizza \u2013 so-named for its airy, \u201ccloud-like\u201d texture, achieved through a specially developed dough-fermentation process \u2013 to Wan Chai. Capuano\u2019s pies are also presented as a \u201ccut\u201d above the rest: a pair of \u201cgolden\u201d scissors are used at the table to divvy up the slices, a ritual that maintains the structural lightness of the pizza base.<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">Shop G04-05, G\/F, Lee Tung Avenue, 200 Queen\u2019s Road East, Wan Chai<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">Manteigaria<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Manteigaria\u2019s authentic past\u00e9is de nata.
