W hat started as an outdoor mobile wood-fired pizza oven company catering to the public in Cairo, New York is now more than that — it’s a family-owned pizzeria focused on high-quality pizza and specialty pizzas. Pizzeria Michelina and its part- ners Robert Meringolo, Michael Johnson, and Steven De Lorenzo are passionate about creating artisanal wood-fired pizzas from scratch — utilizing all-natural in- gredients, fresh-grown herbs on the premises, and the best pizza ingredients available in the market! New York City’s sushi extraordinaire Adam Doi is the executive chef of the pizzeria and restaurant. Doi is a part-time resident in the area. Meringolo and Doi cre- ate Italian desserts from scratch available daily at the restaurant. And, Meringolo recently added his Tonno (white Italian tuna in extra-virgin olive oil) pizza to the menu... Pizzeria Michelina also sells entrées, salads, and slices of pizza. Go to 376 Delaware Ave, Albany, NY , or call Pizzeria Michelina at (518) 937-4976 . ADV Pizzeria Michelina Catering & Events “ Robert makes authentic wood-fired pizzas in his own Valoriani oven ”, said Rick Bedrosian , a friend of Meringolo, and our freelance writer... Pizzeria Micheli- na was invited by the City of Albany to bring their mo- bile wood-fired oven and set it up in front of the capital. This past summer, Pizzeria Michelina sold at least 60 wood-fired personal pizzas a day from their mobile unit... Area organizations started calling the pizzeria for catering and to participate in more events... Call them!
