Pinocchio Pizzeria is the most popular restaurant in Bang Niang. Every evening guests flock to this central location to dine in true Italian style. Ramon, the Italian owner, speaks perfect German and takes very good care of his guests. T-Globe has voted him the "best restaurant host" of the Andaman coast. The ingredients for the pizzas are directly imported from Italy according to Ramon. The pizzas are prepared by the cooks in the open kitchen and placed into the wood fired oven in sight of the customers. The waiters present the dishes in professional manner, directed by the owner in an unobtrusive manner. Prices in Pinocchio Pizzeria are at the upper end of all restaurants in Bang Niang but obviously reflect the expectations of customers. Besides Pizzas many other typical Italian dishes are served as well as original Italian wine and other spirits.
