Tackling Naples’ time-honoured street food, Napolia is KL’s new space for pizza portafoglio, pizza fritta, arancini, frittatina and crochette.

With cries of ‘ciao’ welcoming customers and Come Prima blasting on the speakers, Napolia serves a spirited slice of Naples for the senses.

Munch on the Margherita as pizza portafoglio - an oven-fresh folded ‘wallet pizza’ - served steaming like Vesuvius, easy to relish on the run. No tariff on tomatoes: Napolia relies on Solania tomatoes for ripe, sun-soaked Neapolitan brightness.

Fried fare proves irresistible: Pizza fritta (fried pizza), plus pleasures from the counter - luscious ragu-stuffed arancini (perhaps the most indulgent Italian rice balls in KL’s city centre), frittatina (crunchy-battered pasta fritters with molten magic of cheese and besciamella) and crochette (mashed potato croquettes).

Malaysian-founded Napolia takes over the former location of Pizzeria Dihyang in Chow Kit.
