24-carat gold leaf
and black and white truffles
"Take our dough that we prepared using yeast that we make here with seawater, spirulina, and Italian flour in order to strengthen it, and then when we knead it. We add charcoal and black garlic to give it a black color."
The dish has received mixed reactions from customers
(SOUNDBITE)(Arabic) CUSTUMOR OF DAPIETRO PIZZERIA, ZAKI KRIP, SAYING:
"I see it as part of the process of making a special restaurant. When you travel and find a respected chef or a restaurant you find products with their own personal touch that are very expensive. I saw many comments on social media from people who did not like the price. I will not buy it not because I do not like it. But I will say bravo to its maker."
