Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 7th October, 2015

800 Degrees Neapolitan Pizzeria, launches a new pizzeria at the new extension of Mall of the Emirates, inaugurated by H.E. Ibrahim Mohammed Al Janahi, the Deputy CEO and Chief Commercial Officer of JAFZA. The grand opening was graced by the presence of chief dignitaries and VVIP's such as H.E. Umej Bhatia, the Singapore Ambassador to the UAE; Renuka Jagtiani, the Vice Chairperson of Landmark Group; Shahram Shamsaee, Founder at Msquared Shopping Centres; Lee Talbott, Director Leasing of Mc Arthur and Company; and Kritika Rawat, Presenter at Radio 89.1.

With a goal to take the GCC market by storm with culinary delights true to taste from Naples, 800 Degree Pizza's fresh concept relies on creating completely customizable traditional Neapolitan Pizzas that are oven baked using Almond Wood right in front of the consumer.

After its launch at City Center Me'aisem, 800 Degrees Pizza brings to the table an ingenious menu of fully customizable pizzas -to choose everything from the base, to toppings and beyond and have them baked to perfection in 90 seconds, the traditional Italian way. The menu does not conform to pizzas alone; it also has Gelato, Burratas, Ricotta Cheese Bread and Salads to choose from, making 800 Degrees Pizza a home to authentic Italian delights. 800 Degrees Pizza's specialty is the signature Neapolitan pie. Additionally, there is a gluten-free option for crust.

A concept that originated in Los Angeles, California, 800 Degrees attributes its exceptional ideology to the need for authentic Italian pizzas. Pizza Napoletana is made with just flour, salt, water and wild yeast to create a fluffy crust and a thin interior. A rich tomato sauce indigenous to 800 Degrees alone, the scrumptious base is then topped with fresh mozzarella and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Charred in an oven to perfection using Almond-Wood and all of this is up and ready in 90 seconds. Introducing the taste of Napoli for the first time to L.A., 800 Degrees now comes to the U.A.E. with rich, sumptuous and remarkable pizzas.

Manish Jeswani, the Managing Director of Eaters LLC and franchise rights owner of the US based 800 Degrees Neapolitan Pizzeria, said, "I express my sincere thanks to His Excellency Ibrahim Mohammed Al Janahi and all of our chief guests for gracing the opening with their presence. The new location at The Mall of the Emirates is planned very strategically given that it is very accessible and right in the heart of the city. The experience that is created is very vital to dining - we want the customer to be completely invested in the creation of their meal. The base, ingredients, sauces and every topping is selected by the guests and the pizza is cooked right in front of them. Prepared in just 90 seconds, it is a delight to watch how perfectly the pizza is created."

Under the leadership of Manish and Master Pizzaiolo, Chef Rosario Accaria, 800 Degrees Pizza is the ingenious pizzeria that bakes the perfect pizza to take the region on a tour through the rich heritage of Naples and back.
