AVPN certification (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana)
Since 2022, Pizzeria NO.900 has seen its mastery of Neapolitan know-how rewarded with the AVPN (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana) certification, an important international distinction granted exclusively to restaurants that respect all the rules of Neapolitan pizza. We thus became the first pizzeria in Quebec and the first chain in the world to be crowned with this seal of authenticity.
On Monday, January 29, the 2018 edition of NO.900 Challenge took place in our head offices. Our pizzaioli competed with each other to earn a spot in our squad for the Las Vegas World Pizza Games. Next March, the NO.900 team will demonstrate their know-how and talent. Congratulations to Raphaëlle of NO.900 Saint-Lambert who won the Fastest box category, to Johanna of NO.900 Griffintown who dominated in the Largest dough category, to Léo of NO.900 Laurier who made the mark in the Fastest dough category and finally to Maria of NO.900 Peel who won the Triathlon category. Last year, team NO.900 returned home with the title of fifth-best Marinara in the world in the Neapolitan division and fourth-best place in the traditional division for our Organic Salami. In the Largest dough category, Paul of NO.900 Bernard won third place. We have no fear that this new crew will be as impressive as the last one. With times very close to world records and our pizzaioli more determined than ever, we are confident to bring home new titles and especially, beautiful stories to share with you. Good luck to everyone!
The Caputo Cup is an annual pizza world competition presented by Antimo Caputo flour, the one that is an integral part of our winning dough recipe. The competition this year included four divisions, including that of Neapolitan pizza . Our pizzaioli , always eager for new challenges and eager to give a taste of NO.900 to other enthusiasts, traveled to Atlantic City for the occasion. Our team has once again made the marinara NO.900 shine among our neighbors and comes home with second place in the “ Neapolitan pizza ” category. Congratulations to our superstar pizzaioli , Mirko D'Agata, Yoann Le Corvec and Brian Vickers!
