Upcoming NYC Pizza Classes with Mark Bello

Posted by Adam Kuban, June 10, 2009 at 9:45 AM

Pizza a Casa's Mark Bello leads the ingredient-procurement expedition during one of his pizza workshops.

Mark Bello of Pizza a Casa has just announced two late-June pizza workshops. The classes comprise a walking tour of Manhattan's Chinatown and Little Italy, where students shop for ingredients at places like Alleva Dairy, and a hands-on workshop in Bello's kitchen.

Ingredients are determined by what the class buys on the shopping portion of the workshop, but from a past Pizza a Casa event I attended, I can tell you that Bello's topping choices are thoughtful and delicious.

Event Info

This month's classes, both on Sundays, are on June 21 and June 28. It's a five-hour workshop, starting at 11 a.m. at Alleva Dairy. Tickets are $150 each, available at pizzaacasa.com.

Did this last year; worth the money and the time especially if you're not familiar with Little Italy and the LES. One of the cooler things about Mark's classes is that you take home all of the leftovers -- not just the pizzas themselves but also most of the dough you made, all of the toppings, and the pizza peel. It gives you an incentive to make more pizza once you've left.
