Luxury is not just about luxury, but about how one receives the “difference between expectation and reality of the experience.
The much-talked-about pizzeria in Azabudai Hills
Since its opening in 2023, Azabudai Hills has been attracting attention as a new destination for those seeking “quiet luxury. Among them, Ristopizza by Napolistaca, which serves authentic pizza from Naples, has been a popular restaurant with a long line of customers since its opening.
We ordered the most popular star-shaped pizza and “tuna” pizza.
This time, we chose the star-shaped pizza “Don Salvo” and the much-talked-about limited edition “Tuna” pizza. The former has an excellent balance of cheese and dough, and is a classic taste that can be enjoyed with confidence. However, it is the “tuna” that is the most noteworthy.
The tomato sauce is topped with lightly seared tuna, arugula, and olive oil. Surprisingly, there was no fishy smell, and the dish even had a slightly Japanese nuance.
Italian beer “Obice” is a light beer
I also ordered “Obice,” an Italian craft beer. The aroma is subdued, the foam is light, and it has a nice thirst-quenching taste, but to be honest, it was not to my taste. I would have liked a bit more bitterness and body to go with a solid pizza.
Azabudai Hills is becoming a tourist attraction and the atmosphere of the restaurant
The restaurant is almost full, with more than half of the customers being foreign tourists. The English-speaking crowd felt as if they were in a European food hall. Azabudai Hills itself has already become a “Tokyo tourist attraction,” and dining here itself has value as an “urban experience.
Private Wisdom’s General Comments
Due to the high expectations, satisfaction after the experience was somewhat cool. While the pizza perfection, location, and customer service exceeded a certain level, it did not have as much impact as the luxury brand endorsement of being “located in Azabudai Hills.
However, the idea of “tuna as pizza” is fresh and interesting as a playful way of expressing cuisine. How one evaluates Azabudai Hills as a tourist destination and the experience of dining out there is left to the sensibilities of the visitor.
The “luxurious sense of discomfort” that poses questions in the midst of serenity is what is appropriate in this day and age.
