Florida has two of the most photographed pizza spots in the US, ranking shows. Where?

Miami Herald24-02-2025

Pizza lovers flocked to two Florida restaurants — and couldn't help but take pictures of their meals.
Now, the dining destinations rank among the 25 most photographed U.S. pizza spots on the review website Yelp.
Mia's Italian Kitchen in Orlando ranks No. 14 and Noble Crust in St. Petersburg is No. 18 on the list. The restaurants made their mark after Yelp studied pizza-related businesses and ranked them 'based on how frequently users submit photos,' according to results last updated Feb. 4.
What do the Florida pizza shops serve?
Of the two Florida restaurants that made the list, Mia's Italian Kitchen ranked the highest at No. 14. Customers at the restaurant — located near ICON Park and other Orlando tourist attractions — have posted 4,100 pictures on its Yelp page.
'Mia's Italian Kitchen is known for their brick-oven pan pizzas, cooked until crispy and packed with flavor,' Yelp wrote in its report. 'Users especially love the options this spot offers, from personal pan to large and Mediterranean to meat lover.'
The restaurant also serves sandwiches, salads and pasta dishes. One fan favorite is the 'giant meatball,' an 18-ounce creation that people have shared more than 100 photos of on Yelp.
Also in the Sunshine State, Noble Crust earned the No. 18 spot on the list. While the business has three locations in the Tampa Bay area, the one in St. Petersburg received the honor from Yelp. Over time, it has generated more than 2,600 photos on the website.
'Blending Italian staples with Southern soul food, Yelpers agree that Noble Crust's farm-fresh pizzas take the cake, or should we say pie,' the review website wrote. 'In particular, users love snapping photos of the Noble Pig Pizza, topped with a variety of meats, veggies, and a sunny-side-up egg.'
Other well-photographed menu items include the restaurant's meatballs and lemon ricotta pancakes. In addition to Italian-inspired dishes, some customers raved about nods to Southern cuisine, including the shrimp and grits.
Nationwide, the top-ranked restaurant was Lou Malnati's Pizzeria in Chicago. The eatery boasts more than 6,200 pictures on its Yelp page.

Zanotta Expands the Z24 Collection With Muller Van Severen's Zig-Zag Designs

Summary Italian furniture companyZanottacontinues its creative dialogue with Belgian design duoMuller Van Severenby expanding the Z24 collection, which originally launched in 2024. This renewed partnership introduces three new chests of drawers and the Z24 Books bookcase, each playing with bold geometry, saturated color, and the expressive energy of the zig-zag motif. 'For us, this presents the perfect opportunity to blend our own quirky design language with Zanotta's iconic aesthetic,' explain Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen, underscoring their intention to create designs that are 'as sculptural as they are surprising.' This shared ethos fuels pieces that merge creative freedom with structural coherence. The Z24 Books bookcase, available in two heights, is conceived as both a functional storage piece and a striking spatial element. Designed for flexibility, it can stand alone, sit against a wall, or divide a room with sculptural elegance. Glossy painted steel sides – finished in hues like amaranth, orange, and algae – feature the hallmark zig-zag profile, which blends seamlessly with natural oak shelves. 'The recurring zig-zag shape is both a very sculptural element and a structural one,' note the designers, 'making joints invisible and forming pure yet distinct shapes.' This interaction between form and function creates a rhythmic composition where visual tension and material harmony co-exist. Complementing the bookcase, the new chests of drawers introduce a horizontal articulation of the zig-zag pattern. These storage units are offered in three dimensions and an array of soft and vivid finishes—from subtle wax to bold grass green. They maintain a cohesive design identity while asserting their individual character. Seamlessly integrated into the broader Z24 family, these pieces extend the collection's vocabulary of movement, texture, and utility. With this latest chapter, Zanotta reinforces its role as a champion of forward-thinking design, continuing its partnerships with leading creatives to fuse artistry and contemporary living in distinctive and unexpected ways.

Sydney Sweeney pretty in pink for Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sánchez Bezos wedding

Sydney Sweeney was pretty in pink for the Venetian wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos. The "Euphoria" star stunned as she was pictured Friday, June 27, in a plunging blush pink dress — paired with a Messika diamond necklace — while leaving to attend the nuptials of the billionaire Amazon founder and the award-winning TV journalist. Sweeney was among the A-list guests who attended the star-studded ceremony, which also included sisters Kim and Khloé Kardashian, their youngest sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner and family matriarch Kris Jenner; Leonardo DiCaprio and his model girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti; and Bezos' fellow billionaire Bill Gates. How much did the Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sánchez Bezos wedding cost? Oprah Winfrey, Tom Brady, Tommy Hilfiger, Orlando Bloom and model Brooks Nader also attended. For Bezos wedding festivities, Sweeney's stylist Molly Dickson outfitted the star in a summer green and pink archival Elie Saab dress, with her blonde locks in lightly tousled curls. Earlier in the week, the "White Lotus" actress sported a playful little black dress-inspired look, pairing a black Chloé V-neck silk romper with Miu Miu buckle slingback pumps and Balenciaga LED sunglasses. Oprah Winfrey, Ivanka Trump, Khloé Kardashian wear pink at Bezos wedding While butter yellow has ruled the fashion industry in 2025, pink was the color of the day among fashion royals at the Bezos wedding. Khloé Kardashian wore a captivating pink strapless Tamara Ralph Couture gown with a feathery jacket, black sunglasses and diamonds while Ivanka Trump wore a Tony Ward Couture dress adorned with crystal beading. Oprah Winfrey wore a conservative pink gown while supermodel Brooks Nader also wore a strapless pink dress à la Sweeney and Kardashian. A post shared by elen (@lovesydsweeney) Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez tie the knot in controversial wedding ceremony Sánchez Bezos wore a Dolce & Gabbana silhouette dress with a high-neck, adorned with 180 silk chiffon-covered priest buttons paired with a tulle-and-lace veil, inspired by a similar veil that iconic Italian actress Sophia Loren wore in the 1958 film "Houseboat," according to a Vogue magazine exclusive. "It went from 'I want a simple, sexy modern dress' to 'I want something that evokes a moment,' and where I am right now. I am a different person than I was five years ago," she told Vogue.

In New York, this Chinese restaurant is an icon. In Miami, it's closing after a year

Another upscale restaurant is closing in Miami, this time after only a year. RedFarm, the Chinese restaurant from New York famous for its dim sum and Peking duck, announced that it will be shutting down after service this Sunday. It opened in the former site of Mr. Moe's in Coconut Grove at 3131 Commodore Plaza in February of 2024. The New York and Austin, Texas, RedFarm locations will remain open. Created by restaurateur Ed Schoenfeld with partners Jeffrey Chodorow, his son Zach Chodorow and Alex Pirez, the restaurant announced its plans on Instagram in a tersely worded statement with none of the usual effusive thanks or flourishes. 'Thank you to all of our guests who joined us in Miami,' the post read. 'We wanted to let you know that we will be closing our Coconut Grove location at the end of service this Sunday, June 29.' The post went on to say that the Chodorows plan to reopen RedFarm in South Florida in the future and that signature dishes, such as Ed's pastrami egg rolls and the colorful Pac Man shrimp dumplings will return. At the moment, no new site has been announced. The first RedFarm opened in New York's West Village in 2011. Miami native Jeffrey Chodorow, best known here for opening the famous China Grill in Miami Beach in the mid 1990s, said in 2024 that opening in South Florida had always been in the back of his mind. 'As a Miami native and resident, I always knew we would bring RedFarm here,' he said. 'Not only because I'm always craving RedFarm's dishes, but many of our New York customers spend a lot of time here, or have moved here, and our Miami friends kept asking me when we were going to open here.' The closing comes at a time of mild upheaval in the Coconut Grove culinary scene. At the end of May, the Michelin-recommended Portuguese restaurant Sereia closed after a only year. The Italian restaurant Like Mike, which opened in 2022 and was located at 3433 Main Highway, quietly closed as well and is being taken over by the Italian seafood spot Sapore de Mare, its Grove neighbor. Also gone is Chef Michael Schwartz's Harry's Pizzeria at 2996 McFarlane Road. The brand also quietly closed its South Beach location.
